Closer crop, #2.

On flickr, I had suggested B&W, but seeing it now... I like the colour better.

Thanks for the clarification Gary :)
I rather liked the flecks of color which the lighting was bring out

Both are good, but I prefer the first for some reason.

Michaelb thanks for the feedback :)
You like the first crop right ?

[RebelRat]

I like the original. Seems to tell the story about a dragonfly out in this big world.
