beautiful colour, but i am not too fond of the boarder. I feel the paterns take away from the picture. I love all the colours though

How were you able to get so near it, with only 60mm?

Incredible detail I love macros. Its wings are so delicate and you can just see the threads in them...
The dragonfly looks almost like it's looking at you taking the photo, just the tilt of its head suggests that
Brilliantisimo!

what exactly does "macro" mean XD? I want to learn
But this is sooooo amazing the colors look really nice and vibrant. this image belongs in a photo museum or encyclopedia.

macro means like an very upclose shot, like i could take a macro shot of just your eyes alone

Too bad I cant see the diffrent levels in its eyes, I always like looking at that.
What camera did you use for this one?
