Beustiful shot Gert, it's perfect. The details are super. I'm not sure of the ID to this one. It looks very much like Dolicovespula media, but yours has black femurs. Anyway well done.

Otro excelente ejemplo de nitidez y agudeza con gran composicion a partir de una correcta perspectiva y DOF.
La única critica que podría hacer, es que tal vez el f6.3 no haya sido suficiente para ubicar a todo el insecto totlamente en foco.

Another excellent example of clearness and sharpness with great composition from a correct perspective and DOF.
The only one criticizes that it could do, is that perhaps f6.3 has not been sufficient to locate totally to all the insect in focus.

Nice macro, with a very descriptive position, and clear details. The diagonal composition helps prespective. Maybe a bigger F would have taken al the insect into DOF, but can live like this very well.

This is sharpness itself! Excellent color and DOF

Thanks for posting

Lovely wasp. Detail as sharp as usual. Fansatic post Gert. It started to rain here just as I began typing this critique.

Just a common wasp, which we know in Holland too, but...what a great macro-photo, nice colours and good sharp details, it's great, Gert

Excellent shot as usual, but perhaps a bigger fstop. At 1/250 handheld you could have raised fstop.
Nide diagonal composition
