Challenge: Lighter Than Air (Basic Editing) Collection: Lost in the Forest of Who I Am Camera: Canon EOS-40D Lens: Canon EF 200mm f/2.8 L II USM Lens Location: Andover, NJ Date: May 29, 2011 Aperture: 3.2 ISO: 400 Shutter: 200 Galleries: Blur, Insects, etc Date Uploaded: May 31, 2011 Add photograph to your favorites Add photographer to your favorites	some remarkable blur on a dragonfly. I got some focused captures of the same dragonfly in mid-flight, but they just were nothing compared to this. I have no idea how the mirror image was created, or how there can be detail on the wing.

I viewed this image for ever, don't know if it's the relaxing colours, the nice Bokeh and balanced feel, or the blot at the bottom (hehe).

4.3 eh? My lowest scoring favorite yet! Way to go team! :-)
I pegged it for a mid-fiver. But gave it a 10

Don I'm not kidding. I put the pinhole on for some shots and this bug thing came out in a few. I used the bulb blower but...Then a lens so I don't know if I got it.

That's some dragon shot. Great balls of bokeh

I think I have a bug on my sensor.

Sometimes technical perfection does not convey the feeling, this is nice.

Lovely abstract and just enough definition. Nice title, too.

Noise takes away from this cool abstract of this.

This! Is! Magnificent!
If this doesn't get some sort of bling for something... well something's just plain wrong.

Wish this were sharper... faster shutter speed... And you have a dead pixel (middle bottom edge)

Still... it has a bit of abstract charm to it!

I'm struggling with this shot. While I like the idea and find the bokeh quite nice, the colours seem quite muddy.

This is a bold and great entry, for some reason I am drawn to abstracts and near abstracts a bit more that the standard "wow factor" shots. I like the green and circular patterns; nice shot.
