Competition entry: The Dragonfly
The Dragonfly by Sonja Haske

35 points - Hon. Mention
Judges' comments:
Good behavior shot; cropped a bit tight on top; leaf is over-exposed
Maker's notes:

This photo was taken with my Canon 70-300 IS lens and handheld at the National Zoo in Washington D.C. I cropped the photo from a "landscape" format to a "portrait" format, as there was wasted space in the original. I only used "Shadows and Highlights" in Photoshop to process. I was glad this Dragonfly rested for the photo.
