This macro is amazing and you managed it really well. Good use of the fill-flash with no overexposure. Details of the eye are unbelievable!!! Your swift to macro-photo reaches the top, I hope to see hundred of quality pictures like this in the near future.

Hi Paul,
This is an amazing macro shot. I think this is where Hollywood got their ideas from to create the sci-fi characters. This image is extremely sharp and the exposure is well handled which lead to the perfect colours.
Well done!

One of those awesome macros putting you face to face with a species that has inhabited the Earth for some 50 million years, and whose ancestors already lived here on Earth some 300 million years ago! Dizzying impression and perspective. Thank you very much for this reminder,

Wonderful details, especially on the eyes. I'm amazed at the relatively wide DOF, looks like more than a couple of mm, which is what I usually get!

Hi Paul, hope all is well with you, see you been spending some time at Vatmark, used to go there often when I was located in Haninge. It a really nice place and the walk is short and good. Nice macro pic, these subjects are a great way to get some macro work in. I have been shooting some also in Aspen lake.

We must meet soon. I will email you my number so when your around give me a buzz. Speak soon. Keep the good work coming in.

Great shot Paul. The details are superb in the right places. The composition really works too. I love the symmetry of the legs in the foreground. Very good work.

Hello Paul,

What a remarkable macro you are offering us here! I'm always impressed when I see those hundreths (thousands???) of little eyes composing each big eye! There are a lot of details on this picture! Colors are great and you did a excellent composition using that nice pov with a so cooperative dragonfly! TFS,

Michel

Hoi Paul

Ongelofelijk hoe jij deze dieren weet vast te leggen. Over macro gesproken! Hoe lelijk deze dieren ook zijn. Ik vind ze evengoed geweldig mooi. Blijf zo doorgaan, dan blijf ik ervan genieten;)

TFS, Thijs.
