Good macro. Nice details in the wings.

Lovely detailed close up. Good bokeh.
Post actions
Beautifully clear, and lovely colour.

Bit of noise in the background. Also missing the tail end will not score as highly as if it were included. Still, it's a good shot... Macros of these guys are difficult. Good work.

Thank you for keeping the entire dragonfly in focus. I love the detail on its wings (both sides), the interesting blue on its tail. About the only nit on this is the hot spot on its eye.
Post actions
You got it good. Nice exposure.
Post actions
Very clear and nicely focused, however, too much compression is killing the detail and the smooth background. At only 51k, you had a LOT more overhead. Check your compression settings when you save your file. Always adjust JPEG compression so that your file size is as large as possible, but within the challenge limit. (200k for this one)

Nice macro. Would like it a tad wider maybe so her back end isn't almost cut off.

Well captured and presented. Color is great. Comp, too.

What a gem! The photo is so sharp; I see beauty that I could not see without your camera shot.

Nice macro shot, great detail and color.

focus could have been a bit deeper in my opinio, to include the eyes

Nice and clear on the dragonfly.

Composition is rather bland. The similarity of colors in the subject and background don't allow for much to stand out.
Post actions
interesting macro, good detail in the wings and tail (not sure that's what it's called)
Post actions
Beautiful macro with a lot of details on a nice background.
Post actions
crop is too tight especially at the rear of the dragonfly. nice capture and DOF to get the wings relatively in focus. 6

Lovely color! A bit OOF though.
Post actions
Nice macro! Pretty colors.
Post actions
I little more negative space around the dragonfly might make this a stronger composition.
Post actions
Cropped a faraction tight imho but great shot!

A little noisy for the background but good detail on the bug.
Post actions
Nice macro. Would like to have seen the tail end cropped a little wider. Love the wing detail.
Post actions
Perhaps cropped too closely to the wing and tail, but overall very lovely. I like it!
Post actions
nice macro, but the crop is a little too tight.
Post actions
First of all I need to ask, how the hell do you get so close to these things? I usually end up looking like a fool chasing them around..Fantastic shot.
Post actions
Looks like a delicate gem. beautiful.
Post actions
Not a bad macro, but lacks any real punch.
Post actions
I love drangonflies. Wing detail is incredible.
Post actions
A bit tight on the crop color is nice.
