More Harlequins from North Central Iceland. These two, male and female together, were in the rapids of a creek and very wet.
Is this a composite? No

Interesting that their wetness gives them the same gray sheen as the water, which is a nice BG. Pleasing detail.
Good detail and a nice color tinge to the water for background. Well done.
I like that they’re both in good focus and the water sheen is really cool. I do wish it had been possible/safe to get lower, though that would have probably made the needed depth of field impossible.
I think this one is a good illustration that a higher viewpoint can sometimes have its advantages. If the viewpoint was from lower, one would have eclipsed the other unless you waited for (and got) a different arrangement of them, and the water might have been less attractive from a lower angle.
