📷 Dragonflies - ColorChallenge: Friday Blue 顔色挑戰：藍色蜻蜓

[shieha]

TGIF! Tomorrow I have a trip planned that requires me to get up early, so today's post will be short. For today's #ColorChallenge post, I'd like to share some photos of blue dragonflies I've shot.

大家好，終於到了星期五！由於明天有計劃需要早起，今天來發個短帖子。爲了今天的顔色挑戰我來分享一些藍色的蜻蜓。

^{Shot with a Canon EOS M in Taiwan: 1/125 sec, f/8, ISO 2000, 100mm.}

^{Shot with a Canon EOS 450D in Shanghai: 1/500 sec, f/8, ISO 400, 400mm.}

If you know the species, please help me out by leaving a comment below, $1 SBD reward :)

如果你知道以上的蜻蜓物種，請留言讓小弟增加知識哦！老規矩，$1 SBD 獎金！
