Fantastic capture. I'd like to get one like this some day, but for some reason there don't seem to be so many dragonflies around during the summer as there used to be.
Those blue spots on the tail are really cool, aren't they! |

This is just excellent. Maybe not for the challenge voters, but the actual shot of the bug is perfect. If it is cropped, I would have probably tried to leave more space on the right side , moving the subject bug so that it appeared to be moving into the shot.
That's great timing and quick focusing to get such a fine shot on an airborne insect. I shoot some like this too, and it is sort of a crap shoot to get a good one like this. |

| I can't believe the score for this wonderful shot is in the 4's! I voted very high on this one because I know how difficult it is to capture a dragonfly in flight. Manual focus too! Wonderful! I see the x in the wings. Maybe if you called it x-wing... ? :) |

Wow, how did you capture a flying object with manual focus? Or was it already captured by a spider web? jk :) I think the colors are wonderful. Don't know why you're down here in the basement.
Yes your title would have fit mine well. I think it's a funny play on words. (I'm dislexic and do that kind of reversal all the time. :)) |

| From this angle the X is not terribly evident, though it is there, but what a catch! |

The title does not count AS a challenge topic in my book, although I like the picture.
I'm still not sure what to do with this for voting. Or maybe I'm missing something.....? |

| The X doesn't pop out at me. Other than that, it's great - good detail, the very blurry background IS working for me in this case (looks almost like parchment), and good subject placement (NOT dead-center). 7 |

| Having tried to shoot something like this before, I know how very difficult it is to get one of these in flight. Well done!! |
