Well worth the soaking IMO, Doug. Very nice detail, comp, and smooth BG.

I think this is great Doug. I especially like the detail throughout the entire dragonfly, that's something I struggle with while photographing these. The BG is wonderful as well, really making your subject stand out.

Doug:
A very good comp indeed and worth getting wet for this one. The whole DF including the wing tips are sharply focus and the BG is really clean. Well done.
