Like this a LOT - sweet colour combinations, nice comp and placement in the frame, and some nice wing detail. A little more DOF would have been nice, but that would have sacrificed the SS

So true, Sandy and I've wished I'd taken the time or the DF would have given it to me. Notice that this is not a long lens. This DF, like many I've noticed, seem curious about me if I'm stationary for a significant time. They sometimes, or maybe it is some specie, work closer and closer. This one perched right next to me and I grabbed shots with what I had and how I was set. I may have had time but didn't take the chance. Maybe next time. lol

I like this slightly superior/frontal POV breaking off at 45 degrees - Nice view of those wings Charlie.
This species is tough to expose properly, excellent job on that..
Nice detail and the WS stands out well too.
Have a great weekend my friend

Esthetically and technically very well done, pleasing shot. Might hope for a bit more detail on the eyes, light is a bit contrasty there.
