The rain looks great - so does the sharp eye, and the green monochromatic look.

Amazing. The rain makes this amazing!
Impressed that it didn't affect the sharpness since you seem to have had no subject movement.

Really neat. Wonderful tones and the textured rain really gives that BG energy. Great idea and hope you didn't get too wet shooting that.

Stunning - superb image! I love the comp and framing, the monochromaticism (is that a word?) and, of course, the rain. It reminds me very much of a certain Robert Bateman painting ("Beach Grass and Tree Frog")

My first reaction was "this can't be real", but honestly it looks just great and without any noticeable flaws... Great shot! I saw quite some damselfly shots, but never something like this. Nice colors and contrasts too. Awesome work!
