That's a nice green dragonfly. You really need to have sharp focus on the eyes at least, but great capture nevertheless.

Composition works well for this shot - shows both the camoflauge capabilities of the dragonfly but provides enough contrast with the dark upper triangle to give him (or her) substance. Good light and color (which is nicely NOT overdone.) With these closeup bug shots, focus had to be dead on if there's no other story to tell other than the cool nature of bugs.

great colours but the head of the dragon fly seems to be just a little out of focus.

Very nice. Looks like a little camera shake or motion on the part of the dragonfly that makes it a little blurry.
