Three inches, that's huge! Very fine detail on this and the DOF keeps the focus on him.

He is a striking critter! Excellent colors and details on him. Especially enjoy the interesting pose and his hold on that perch.

Great Detail and Color Tom.
Looks more like a "Shadow Darner" by the head markings.

Well Done!
