What a moment! Nature is so cool to photograph when you get opportunities like these. I like how the arms look like a heart. I think the one up top is staring at you.

Lee Anne,
A brilliant shot of this pair of Damsel Flies copulating the sunlight highlighting both Damsel Flies & the stem they are clinging to both standing out in sharp contrast to the dark background. Artistic composition, framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
Good luck in the contest.
Susan

I like the way the mating damsels are forming a heart, and I especially like the way the light is falling on them. The all black background makes them stand out in an excellent way.

The photo is very sharp showing such clear and well defined details in both damsels, and the exposure is perfect.

The format and framing is very good, and the by the placement of the damsels within the frame, it is a very good balance in the composition. A lovely and well taken photo Lee Ann, and I wish you luck with the contest.

In the delicate embrace of a shared moment, two damselflies dance in harmonious unity, their wings glistening in the sunlight, creating a captivating symphony of beauty and grace captured in a single frame. Captivating close-up photo. Well done! Good luck!

A good looking image presented here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that loving couple. Textures, colours and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!
