Anche questo insetto l'ho già proposto in passato, ma non da questo POV, la provenienza è sempre il famoso cestino dei rifiuti, arriverà la primavera......

A symphony of colours, Silvio.
Both the insect and the flower have beautiful colours on them.
A well composed shot with lots of vivid details.
TFS and cheers.

Yes....from the arrives or litter bin which is one step awy from mortal, yet survived and is well posted as a reminder. Many do this and I think i9t is good...but then....Nice colours and interesting little bee type insect.

Hello Silvio,
Another excellent capture of this yellow-headed wasp, beautifully composed on this fine thistle flower and the OOF natural BG helps to make stand out.
Nice reminder of the early summer!
Thanks for that!

What a colourful Wasp!!
The purple flower is really vibrent and the perfect perch for this wasp to be on.
Excellent sharpness and detail.
Superb composition.
I think the DOF is slightly too shallow seeing as the head is slightly OOF but bumping up the aperture would have slowed the shutter speed and may have meant that the photo would have been blurred... so basically you have done really well here :)
Well done my friend,
Joe

Hi Sylvio,
Lovely composition of this beautiful flower and insect, good vivid colors and well presented and composed macro image , lovely details too, great shot and sharp picture very well done.

Ciao Silvio,
un soggetto sempre molto piacevole da fotografare ed estremamente fotogenico, anche se il giallo del capo non è facile da riprodurre.
Questa foto mi fa venire tanta voglia d'estate, di bel tempo e di nuove foto da realizzare.
Ciao,
Marcello

Hi Silvio,
A real combination of colours that make it stand out even as a thumbnail image.The bug is an ugly looking fella with those black hairy legs.I like the detail of the spider web around the base of the flower.Take care and TFS.
Regards, David

Bonito conjunto, luz y colores con un atractivo encuadre. El insecto queda algo fuera de foco pero aún así es una toma muy bella.

Superb action shot of this insect. The flower is brilliant in purple and the head of the insect dugged in there. I like it for well managed light, depth and clarity.
