This little guy was stuck in a spider's web, hanging in front of the side of our boat. I ran in and got my camera, and then set it free for being such a cooperative model. (294 days ago)

insect, damselfly

I was wondering how you managed to get a totally white background till I read your comment. I think it might have been better if you had managed to get the spiderweb too. There is also chromatic aberation on the insects legs which you might want to fix in post processing. That purple and green tint on the legs looks unnatural. Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for the comment. I worked on the aberation. I hadn't even noticed it before.
