Zenithoptera lanei
While walking through a marshy area near the Rio Sucusari, I was amazed to see this incredible dragonfly with blue wings! Zenithoptera lanei is a species known from other areas of South America, but I must confess that I was unprepared to see such a creature. These shots were taken near the Rio Sucusari, Deparmento de Loreto, Peru with a Canon EOS 1D Mark II and EF 300mm F/4 L IS lens and 2X extender and 580 flash.
