I know, I know, it's another bug. But SUCH a cool pose! It's an Eastern Amberwing, which is a fairly small dragonfly. But quite beautiful, and he really did have his little rear pointed straight up to the sky.
Had the 36mm + 20mm teleconverters on and used fill flash.
PP - straightened, cropped, increased saturation, increased saturation again on red/orange, increased brightness and contrast, resized, sharpened, added border.

Lovely capture and I think your title is spot on. A very small comment - if you bring up the blacks just a tad, the wings will pop out and give this a real WOW factor. Hope its in the top five.
