 I had a different version of this done for the last Bug Challenge but entered something else. Not sure how it would have done, maybe better? Who knows. I re-cropped it and desaturated it a bit and this is what I got. Later. Happy July!

The flower color in this and the way he is lightly grasping the petal makes it look so delicate. Great detail in the dragonfly too... Very nice...

Amazing picture! I would be really interested to find out what kit you use. I am very interested in macro shots but do not have the kit for it. I am new to this website (joined this evening) and am not sure how to find your user profile so I have added mine. If you have a minute to leave me a message and some advice about macro I would be really grateful. If that's not the done thing here then please do not worry. Bye for now! NES
