Man. . I would have given this a 10 if you could have caught it in flight.

Nice capture, but there's some stiff competition in this challenge. Your DOF, while pretty good, doesn't really stand out when compared to some of the other entries. More particularly on the wire, end of tail, head and legs of fly. I like the blurred background and overall composition, but the lighting is a little harsh causing some hot spots on the wire and fly. Still, a very nice shot. 6

I like the angle of the wings and the angle of the barbed wire - both seems to have attitude as your title implies. It is a nice composition. I like the narrow deapth of focus. I wish the dragon fly and the wire were sharper.

Nice picture but seems slightly out of focus. Since I am new here I don't know if the "unsharp" filter in photoshop is allowed but that might help.

Barbed wire is a nice touch, adds a bit of an original spin to this DPC favourite. Good luck with this challenge!

Eyes are too blurry... looks like focus was on the wings. Good luck!
