Wasp( Paravespula vulgaris )

A wasp is any insect of the order Hymenoptera and suborder Apocrita that is not a bee, sawfly, or an ant. Less familiar, the suborder Symphyta includes the sawflies and wood wasps, which differ from the Apocrita by having a broad connection between the thorax and abdomen. Also, Symphyta larvae are mostly herbivorous and "caterpillarlike", whereas those of Apocrita are largely predatory or parasitic.

Most familiar wasps belong to the Aculeata, a division of the Apocrita, whose ovipositors are modified into a venomous stinger. Aculeata also contains ants and bees. In this sense, the species called "velvet ants" (Mutillidae) are actually wasps.

Excellent composition CT!
Lacks a little on sharpness, but I'm keenly aware of that problem...;-(
Well framed!

Hello Chris!
Lovely close up.POV,colors and visual impact
are wonderful.TFS...:-)

Hi CT,
The colors in this are very vivid. Outstanding composition! I think the reason it is not as sharp as possible is you may have been too close for your camera to get proper focus. I have that same problem when I use my zoom and extender and get to close. It looks good in the viewfinder, but is slightly soft due to being a hair to close. It still is an excellent shot. I think I did the same thing on my last butterfly post. It was slightly soft, and I think that was my problem.
