Excellent POV shot Harvey. I really like this one. It amazes me that this was taken with the 180 + 1.4tc. :shock:
For some reason, it looks wider than that.

Perspective is everything. ;)

Very cool shot, Harvey. Great perspective, placement of the subject, and I love the way that sky looks as a background. I wouldn't mind seeing a little more green at the bottom if some was cropped off.

It's actually even wider :) . This is as close as I could get without falling in the water. Here's the original.

Cool shot. Took me the longest time to figure it's water with sky reflected in the background rather than simply being the sky!

I like seeing the transparent shadows of the wings on the leaves. The water does look alot like natural sky, too. Well done, Harvey.
