WELL FOR A START WE SEE THIS BEAUTYFULL DRAGONFLY SITTING ON WHAT APPEARS TO BE A PLANTSTEM.!

THAT'S THE MOTIVE.

NOW LET'S LOOK CLOSER TO IT.

AT FIRST THE EYE FINDS BEAUTY AND HARMONY IN THE PICTURE.
THE DRAGONFLY ALMOST SLICES THE PICTURE IN 2 SEMI-HALFS: A DARK AND A LIGHT SIDE.

AND THE COLOURS ITSELF ON THE LITTLE CRITTER IS VERY MUCH ALIVE-FULL AND IT SUITS THE CREATURE WELL WITH THE BRIGHT COLOURS, WHICH AT THE FRONT BODY IS QUIT COMPLIMENTING EACHOTHER IN THE ORANGE AND LIGHTBLUE

THIS MAKES US PAY ATTETION TO THE BIG EYES IN THE LITTLE HEAD AND MAKES THE DRAGONFLY LOOK ALMOST AS A PUPPY.

BESIDES THAT THERE IS A FINE BALLANCE IN THE FOCUS OF THE MOTIVE.
AS MUCH AS THE HEAD OF THE DRAGONFLY IS SHARPEND FROM THE BACKGROUND COLOURS AS MUCH IS THE LOWER BODY OF THE CREATURE SOFTEN OUT SO IT ALMOST LIQUEFIES WITH ITS SURROUNDINGS.

THEN WE STARTS TO ANALYZE AND HERE COMES THE BAD
BUT SMALL CRITIQUE:
AT FIRST THE BACKGROUND AS MUCH AS I LOVE THE SLICING OF THE COLOURS I ALSO HAVE TO HATE IT A BIT BECAUSE IT MAKES WITH THE SHADE OF THE DRAGONFLY A DIFFUSE ANGEL ON THE MOTIVE THE LIGHT AND SHADING DOESN'T REALLY FIT TOGEHTER AND MAKES THE EYE EXPRIENCE THAT THERE MUST BE 2 DIFFERENT LIGHT SOURCES.

THE SECOND CRITIQUE IS THAT THE POOR DRAGONFLYS WINGS ALMOST DISAPEARS IN THE LIGHT SOFTENING
IT REALLY DON'T SUITS THE LITTLE ONE
THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN A BIT CAUTION TO THE WINGS THEY ARE AFTER ALL MERELY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO IDENTYFIE THE INSECT.


ELSE WHY I LIKED THE PICTURE AND THE ATMOSPHERIC CALMING IT RELEASES.

IT'S STILL A FINE PIECE AND DESERVES TO BE CALLED ART IN IT'S OWN WONDERFULL NATURE!
What do you think?

you are much more patient that me. I've never been able to look for insects and photograph them.
