When dragonflies are born their wings is soft and need a few minutes to dry in the sun before they can fly away and do their business. (Dragonfly business) I discovered this one just after it had hatched and it is instinctly trying to hide as best as it can behind a single straw. I shot a few images and left it. I have high hopes for this generation of dragonflies...

amazing and perfect photo. if I may know, this photo you take with what camera, sir @erlendgrosrth?

Excellent photo, I like this photo. Thank for sharing in steemit

Hi @ramadhanth,
Thanks for you comment. I used a Canon EOS M5 (that's not that relevant, all cameras are good.) The real trick is what lens you use.
For this one I used an old Helios 44-2 with a couple of extension rings. The rings helps bring the minimum focus distance closer, hence more magnification. The bacground blur (bokeh) of those lenes is quite nice and it sometimes produces some very charateristic "highligh rings"
Cheers, Erlend

Beautiful work friend !

Beautiful information about the new born dragonflies. But the your photography of the new born dragonfly is really impressive.
