the 1st one is my favourite because of the green BG, it gives it a nice context.

wow, all of these are really sharp though. good stuff.

Beautiful, one and all. Great color, sharp focus and DOF. I try to capture images of these neat insects
whenever I'm on a pond or swamp shoot. They are very flighty (no pun) though. I try to have more patience but I have never been able to create images like yours. What equipment and set up are you using? The damsel is my favorite. These belong in a text book. Thanks for sharing.

They are very sharp and the colors very vivid these are very nice captures.

I visited your gallery. Much of your work is outstanding.

Nice work overall. But I would use a little deeper DOF than you're using. It also requires a good shutter speed, so all this may require a faster ISO.

I think they may be oversharpened. At least they look like that on my monitor.
