re'entered this shot with a bit more crop, don't know if it looks better but just taking advice of other's, 

Very much agree with David Edd!!

Interesting well caught composition edd. A construction of colour and an amazing capture.

I didn't see the previous version but this is well presented. Beautiful colour and detail.

The colours are brilliant, you must have been very patient but it definitely paid off to get this fine shot. BOL.

This is an amazing capture Edd, great detail and lovely colours. Very well done and good luck. Thank you for your very kind comments on mine. Pam

I've tried so many times to capture dragonflies

but I just can't get them right.

This is a fabulous shot. BOL

Great capture.  Like the detail on the wings .vbol 

Increible composicion y aun mas dificil el lograr ese momento oportuno y aun mas de dos animales en movimiento, me alegra mucho que usted haya sido a uno de los que les haya gustado una de mis fotos despues de ver la calidad de las suyas , en ellas se puede ver a un artista, le invito a ver algo mio, aunque le advierto que son de un aficionado, podra verlas en Flickr buscando " jotogoro" o bien en Picasaweb buscando tomasglez, un saludo enorme desde las Islas Canarias, Teror, Gran Canaria, España.

Incredible composition and even more difficult to achieve that moment and even more than two animals in motion, I am very pleased that you have been to one you liked one of my photos after seeing the quality of their own, in them You can see an artist, I invite you to see something of mine, but I warn you are an amateur, you can view them on Flickr looking for "jotogoro" or in Picasaweb looking tomasglez a huge greeting from the Canary Islands, Teror, Gran Canaria , Spain.

Great shot Edd. You had to be patient for this one. BOL

Just wonderful.

Fab shot, I've walked round a golf course a few times seen loads

but never been quick enough to get them just right.

VBOL

Azure Damselflies. After mating, the male (Blue) stays attached to the female as she lays her eggs. Sometimes the female becomes totally submerged. Well captured.

Stu.

Super image, Edd!  I can never capture them, they always fly away just before I press the button.  Well captured!

Lovely colours and great detail on the dragonflies - esp the wings. Still can't bring myself to take pictures of insects tho.

Wow. I have tried to capture these beautiful insects too.

Great shot vbol
