An expertly capture of this skimmer Maurizio, from a good viewpoint with good use of a deep focal zone to obtain a pin-sharp image. Knife like leading edges of the wings are very much in evidence within the frame. TFS indeed!

Hello Maurizio,
Excellent capture of O. cancellatum. I think this is a female and not an immature male. Great POV showing all the features with fine sharpness against a pleasing OOF BG that shows it up well in fine ligting.
TFS this beauty,
Ciao,

Hi Maurizio

This is an excellent close-up of this lovely dragonfly from you.
However, this is not the species that you mention - Orthetrum cancellatum - but a very similar species from the same genus: Orthetrum albistylum, a female. Probably the most noticeable difference between the two species is that O. albistylum (this one) has the last segment of its abdomen and the appendages completely white.

Anyway, the shot itself is lovely, with impeccable sharpness over the entire body of the dragonfly. The colors are lovely and accurate and the DOF that you used is very good, too.
Nicely seen and taken.

Bravo and TFS
Horia

A very nice close-up of this dragonfly. Colors are beautiful - he looks almost golden. Excellent details and a fine background. I love the position of the wings.

Ciao Maurizio, bellissima libellula, sembra appena uscita da una carrozzeria con quel metallizzato dorato, grandi dettagli, con un pelino di profondità di campo in più avresti amesso a fuoco anche la seconda ala, ma considerando l'obiettivo che hai usato hai già fatto miracoli, bravo, buon week end, ciao Silvio

Bonjour Maurizio,
Image bien construite et avec une magnifique palette de couleurs dorées et vertes. Utile aussi d'avoir des connaisseurs sur TN qui peuvent nous dire de quelle espèce il s'agit exactement.
Bon weekend

Hi Maurizio.
I must say this is one of the best shots I have seen a D70 take. The focus is perfect, and the depth of field shows well.
At 400 iso I am impressed.

Ma dov'è Gaggio?
dev'essere davvero un paradiso.
Riuscire a fare uno scatto così perfetto ad una libellula, che si muove ad una rapidità incredibile non è affatto semplice!
