Dragonfly

Nothing too special I suppose; I took this when I was still relatively new to my camera, and to photography in general.
I like it, though.

No photoshopping except for downsampling.

Re: Dragonfly

Nice shots... I like how they blur out the background while leaving the focused object rather sharp.

And dragonfly wings are just amazing...

Re: Dragonfly

I like those, the crispness is amazing, those flower shots are beautiful, I like flower shots :) they almost look like fingers coming out, and the first one is flipping you off. and that dragon fly, how did you get so close to him? just kidding. but for serious some quality work.

Olympus c5050z, digital, 5 megapixels.

Thanks everybody.
I'm still pretty new to photography, so your words are encouraging.
