Origin of the Dragonfly

The dragonfly - I found it dead in Home Depot where we were buying a live trap for the unknown creature that is raiding our kitchen at night - then I had to take it to the cashier and ask for a bag for my bug and explain that I'm not really wierd - and she agreed that "sure you're not". I glued it to the end of a toothpick and stuck that in styrofoam to get a picture that would look like it was flying. This background seemed to fit with it.

I think this is just beautiful, Laurie! Ethereal and mystical...someplace in the realm of Faery to be sure...love it! Meg

Great mood in this image, and the dragonfly feels right at home in the environment. /Tormod

I like the color tone of the rocks and nice job removing the hot spot. This is right up Meg's alley. It's fun looking at this one and it would be a good one for a child's fairy tale book.

Expect to see fairies or a troll lurking in there. Perfect atmosphere. -Alcina

The colors are very harmonious and the concept is quite original. You've created those wings to be as translucent as real life.
