Dragonfly under the Microscope

FZ6 Stereo Microscope

The images below of a dragonfly were captured using the high resolution Fein Optic FZ6 stereo zoom microscope and the Jenoptik Subra HD microscope camera.

Dragonflies are fast, agile fliers, sometimes migrating across oceans, and are often found near water. In flight, the adult dragonfly can propel itself in six directions: upward, downward, forward, back, left and right.

Each dragonfly image was captured between 7x and about 30x magnification. The images were captured using the Jenoptik Gryphax software that is included with the Subra HD camera.
