It was big and not afraid of the camera_____ I asked the AI about the wide variety of colors in dragonflies, here is the answer: _______ AI says , the environment influences the color of dragonflies, but not only that. Their color depends on pigments, reflective nanostructures, age, sex, temperature, and even their social status (dominant or not). _____ exposure data____ 1/1000 sec f/7.1____ISO 400 _____ Nikkor 300mm topped with a +1 diopter close-up lens
