This magnificent dragonfly was warming up in the sunrise. If you know where they hide, they are very easy to find and photograph. I discovered this specimen at the end of May in a bog.

Taken with a Canon R5, 100mm macro lens. Focus stack on a tripod of about 41 images, basic lightroom adjustments and cleaning up some stacking artefacts in Photoshop. That's it.
