Dragonfly---
Dear everyone,
Thanks =Flynn-the-cat and ^dandelgrosso for the DD! You can't believe how much this means to me.
And a huge thank you to everyone else! For all the comments and +favs and everything. And just to answer some common questions:
- Shot with a Canon 350D with 100mm macro lens
- Lighting using Sunlight + Bounce Flash (gave some awesome iridescent colours at different angles!)
- Some saturation increase in photoshop, but no colouring in. Plus a crop. Isn't nature just awesome?
Thanks so much everyone and appreciate your kind words!

Whoa! This is beautiful!!!
I really must wonder though, is this photo original? Or does it have post processing on the saturation? It looks like post processing, but at the same turn I've never seen a dragonfly nearly that close on my own.
Whether the colors are original or not the photo is gorgeous. His wings look really psychotic! They're fabulous!
