Dragonfly's Stained-Glass Wing

It was April 12, 2025, and the weather was beginning to warm up. The bugs were starting to emerge from their winter hibernation, and I was outside burning an endless pile of leaves. As I walked into the backyard, I noticed a large dragonfly with its magnificent wings, dancing with color as it aired them out, preparing for takeoff. I grabbed the camera for some pictures, catching the array of colors adorning its translucent wings, almost like a stained-glass painting. I had a couple of minutes with this beautiful creature before it wisped away into the Spring winds.
