My vote goes to #3 too like LPaul...and welcome back...
Welcome back Bobo Very nice series, my best is #3 with lovely colors. I like the posture very much in #5, I would try to improve it with PP.
Very nice series. #3 is my favorite as well. 5 & 6 look overexposed to me, but I'll bet there is plenty of room to fix them up in PP.
Thanks everyone for your kind comments.
I should have added that all 3 sets are capable of the #3 treatment. But I wanted to do a dark, medium, light treatment as can be seen between the 3 sets. Particularly the 3rd set in which I wanted to do it light and airy like. Set 2 would be the "normally" processed ones.
Another reason why set 3 is processed in this way is the yellow. Too much contrast and it will blow.
That's a nice series BoBo. If I were to pick out an image, it would be no.3 but only because the whole insect is in focus. The rest are still excellent.
Thanks John. Apologies for the late reply. Busy shooting osprey as usual hehe
Thanks Kaye.
I am favoring 3 as well. Welcome back, missed seeing your bird picks.
I sure do like the simplicity of the third one!
Hi Bobo,
I like #3 for the side view and also the exquisite detail in the dragonfly. I also adore #5, and prefer this background for the light and colour. I would be inclined to crop #5 just a wee bit off of the bottom and right hand side. (eliminating the cobweb and some of the branch)

Thanks Rita, Mike, Christina for your kind comments.
@Christina - yes that could be done. Thanks for the suggestion.
