My best Dragonfly face.

Thx for looking

ISO 800 on a Rebel XTi with a 60 mm Canon Macro with a 32 mm tube and creative Full Flash diffusion.

Probably still a bit harsh. Opinions?

Nice! You must have snuck up very carefully to not disturb it.

Looks excellent.

If you're not sure about a shot leave it for a couple of days then look at it again.

I always do this if I'm unsure about the colour or contrast of a shot, especially after processing a lot.
