Glad to see you posting here, and sure do hope you continue to send excellent shots like this. I love it!!
Nice composition and beautiful colors.
The detail in the wing areas are fabulous, although I do wish there was just a wee bit more detail in the head area to balance it out.
But still, .................. this is awesome!!!! 8)

Welcome to NS, and please keep on sending them!

What MB said. Excellent colors and subject. A slight bit of selective sharpening on the head area would make it even better then it already is. Welcome and I hope to see many more!

Very nice shot. I don't know how you did it, but I especially like the spotlighting effect near the center of the subject, with less light towards the edges.

Spotted the dragonfly when I was on my way to visit the Hamadryas baboons at the zoo.

Thanks.
