Damselfly Party (Four Photographs) and a word on lenses

This was an extraordinary opportunity, four damselflies mating. There are two sets of photographs here each cropped to 8 1/2 by 11 and processed the same way. The first two photographs were taken with a Nikon D7200, a 105mm (d) lens, and a 20mm extension tube at 1/250^th, F14, ISO 400 and flash. The last two photographs were taken with a D500, 200-500mm lens at 500mm, 1/320^th , F7.1, ISO 400, no flash. Frankly I like them all. It goes some way in making my point that with close up photography, lenses are often not the main consideration; light, positioning, focus etc. are.
