Nice composition and DOF

nice work, so how much have you got? have just increased mine to 12, but a photo of it wouldn't be as nice.

Not sure of an artificial dragonfly is on theme, but assuming it is, I think you could have got a better angle as this one wasn't about to fly away. Perhaps you can re-shoot.

I can't get a better angle due to a piece of glass between myself and the dragaonfly. This was a window display at a hardware store at night. It is no longer there. Shooting from above looking down on the dragonfly wasn't possible either because I didn't have a step-stool handy and the box under it wasn't that pretty.

I love the piece of tape on the back that covers a gap where there is no glass at all! This is a great "fix job!" Nice photo!

This is great!

Your mixture of scrap tape is a bit tacky.
My advise would be to use duct tape. And remeber to trim the edges. Thats the mark of a true craftsman. LOL

Kidding aside. The mixed tape makes the photo. Well done.

Nice Job Congrats on First Place Win!

I really like the texture of the table (or is it a wooden box or something) & the color in this but the bakground is a litle messy for my taste!
Nevertheless a great entry.

I love the use of B&W here, it truly gave it its mystery!
