I think the DOF is just a tad too small as the tail of the damsels is just out of focus.

Thanks folks.

John, to get any more DOF at f5.6, I'd have needed to parallel the damsel a little more. These were super skittish and wouldn't tolerate much movement. I also like this POV a little more than a full side-on. Just my $.02
