Description
This is more than the photograph of a dragonfly in an unusual poise. It means a lot more to me. It reminds me of a lot.The sun reminds me of the power of nature, and of the fact that we're helpless before it. The skies remind me of the rain. Finally, the poise reminds me of a prayer, and the serene calmness that exists in peace.
Thanks.

It's praying to Allah. All insects and animals all praise it's Creator.

Trust me it was more luck than anything else. All that required some effort was getting down in the correct position without scaring the dragonfly off.
Thank you so much for the kind words.

What makes this dragon fly shot different from the other I have seeing is the angle of the wings. Its the other way and I dont know how possible that is I do like the focus and the exposure. How ever the background is not a perfect match though

this picture is absolutely stunning, I can agree to your thoughts.
I like the fact that he sits on a wire and not on something natural it gives the picture a special feeling.
only the little green spot at the bottom bothers me a little bit but the picture is just as it is just wonderful.

Thats a great shot.. lil over exposured on the top the wing kinda gets sucked into the sunlight. But really calming tone.
What the heck is with that pose?

I love how you captured nature's true beauty. The backround colours go so well together and i'm glad the dragonfly didnt come out too dark or black, so well done on getting in all the details which is real talent. Also well done for getting a photo of the dragonfly in a unique pose. The title used a clever way to describe the picture and goes perfectly with the pic. this is an original, creative and great pic
