fantastic capture! i know how IMPOSSIBLE it can be to take photographs of animals && insects. they just don't sit still! lol. but you've caught it really well, it looks great. and it's nice and clear too :] x
Whats Good About It: This is an excellent shot! I can't begin to imagine how hard it would be to capture insects on film and I am so impressed you captured somethign as fast as a dragonfly! Well done, The focus is excellent, I really like how the wings are blurry and the yellow in the background its so clean and simple and it really brings out the dragonfly to full effect. Overall this shot is really good, you've captured a special moment on camera and because of the shape and contours of the dragonfly the photo works really well compositionally, a great effort!
Whats Not So Good About It/What Can You Do To Improve: I'd really like to see you change that metal bar that the dragonfly is standing on, it seems to yellow to me and I don;t think it compliments your shot at all. One thing you could do is use the Lasso/Selection tool in Photoshop and just select along the creamy yellow bar but curve up so it bisects the tail and reaches the top. This selection should look like the bottom right quarter of a 'U' and make sure everything to the bottom left is selected it should look like this > Link . After that, right click and feather to about 15 pixels and then go to 'Image > Adjustments > Auto Color' and your creamy bar will turn into a nice white colour. Fantastic shot and a really good try, keep up the good work!
I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
