OMG that's just gorgeous. Never mind the waterfalls, that light and mist/cloud combination is just ... gorgeous (I know, I'm repeating myself)!

The wings look like a fancy cape. I love macros, especially of dragonflies. Very nice angles with the bug and the stick, and very 3-dimensional feel to it. And incredible detail ... he's fuzzy in places! And I don't mean OOF.

I suspect you would have lost a point or two from some people for the eye being a little soft but I don't think this would have done too badly in the FS. It has a LOT going for it.

Gotta' get me a prime macro, that's just all there is to it. I'm convinced!

Nice to have a mountain or five ;-) Nice composition on this.

Look Into the Light

I think the overall lighting turned out well. The reflection in your eyes is really big; I'd prefer something more catchlight-sized. Your pupils also look miniscule which leads me to believe you were looking right at the light ... makes you look a wee bit possessed ;-)

Windy, cold, way up in the air ... well, no wonder she was unhappy!

Day "27" - Summer Sunset

The effect worked really well here. The pastels and the softness go well together.

You can always smear some Vaseline on the lens of the P&S to replicate the effect ;-)

Strikingly beautiful against that sky, and marvelous detail. Very much like the non-standard pose and perspective.

And there's pink on the bird! Love the Spanish moss framing the bird. Nice detail and light.
