Hola Ninfa, and welcome to TN. We have already seen some of your amazing dragonfly shots on TE, and this is another great one. Supreme details in the delicate texture of the wings and the body of the dragonfly, and the hawk in the background is a surprising detail. Well placed on the diagonal colorful rope. Very good start ;-)

Amazing details and this brings back a lot of memories. I used to go sailing with my mother (Who unfortunately passed away some 9 years ago) and I remember all these Dragonflies sitting on the yacht's rigging and anchor rope. Thanks for bringing these memories back with this excellent shot.

Hi Ninfa welcome to TN, I see youve been practicing with coloured back grounds, just not had time to comment, sorry.
this looks like a darter (sympetrum) of some sort intresing view against the sky, the fill flash has light the detail on the underside enough to see some good details.
Some people would say clone the hawk out as a distraction but it through the note an intresting untold story comes out. thank you for sharring

Welcome on TN Ninfa and very nice first post of this dragonfly. Very clever handling of the flash to put some light on the main subject. The coloured line contributes to the dragonfly in a very nice way as well as the hawk in the background. Well done.

Hola Ninfa,
Impressive first post! I really like the details you have captured in the wings and the composition benefits from the slightly diagonal placement of the line. Felicidades

A very creative work, I like the bird in backgroud, and the rope is a very unusual environment for this insect, well seen !

One beautiful dragonfly in an image like this is a matter of pleasure..now two striking flying machines is wonderful Ninfa :) The main star here is always the dragon but the silhouette from the skies brings a new dimension to this. good job :)
