Beautiful Dragonfly

Hello my steemit friends.

Today I will post about the dragonfly.
I found this dragonfly in hinngap slammed a dried tree.
Some photos I got, I took with my smartphone. To clarify this photo detail of the dragonfly, I added a macro lens on the smartphone. I was lucky to get some very close shots. Usually with this close shooting distance he will feel disturbed and fly away.

Below I share some macro photos and some reviews about dragonfly.

Dragonfly has a great flying ability. Dragonfly have compound eyes with almost 360 degrees of view, and can fly backwards.

@vacilator, Several times I failed to take a photo of this animal. because he was flying. lucky for me, a few moments later he returned again perched on adjacent twigs. Thank you
