Pretty. The damsel's head is a little lost in the dark part of the background, though. Pretty good DOF and nice focus. Wings are in an attractive position. Overall, good catch just slightly let down by the viewpoint.

Nice damselfly. The background is colorful, which can be good, but since it is more colorful than the subject, it detracts from the image. It makes it look like somebody's yard or patio. Is that where this was taken? The white speck on the leaf is something that makes me disagree with the "no spot retouching" rule.

These are not easy to get a photo of, and you've done a great job! Love the wing detail and lighting is good. The silky leaf is a nice accent.

This is a good composition. The blurred background is a little overpowering.

I really like the almost metallic feel in the thorax, and the wing shadow in the leaf

The only problem I see, is the face/head is lost in the same color background. But not bad enough for a low vote.

Any of various often brightly colored, predatory insects having a long slender body and elongated wings that fold together when the insect is at rest. Also called demoiselle, devil's darning needle. American Heritage Dictonary
Amazing wings of this..................
