Yet Another Dragonfly

From 2010 Blog
- For some reason the dragonflies keep making themselves available for photo ops. I'm beginning to think they may have an agent calling on me soon. Please enjoy yet another dragonfly photo. Canon 1/250 sec @ f/5.0, ISO 400, 100 mm macro.

Thanks for your words of encouragement. This dragonfly photo is really nice- I can't believe how sharp it is. No flash fired?

The yellow is really bright to me, and a little distracting; I'd tone just the yellow's luminance and sat. down in post, and then I think you'd have a killer shot.
