Wooo, nice one Greg! Nothing wrong with this one. Absolutely stunning. Very good job! I can't believe you've had it sitting there not posted for the last 2 months! Resting up at home is making you sort out your folders.....

Great macro Greg! Superb details and very nice colors. Maybe you should have left less space in the bottom and a bit more in the top, but that's a minor nit. Well done & TFS!

Pieter

Hi Grzegorz:
I'll tell you what, I am scared to death of these little creatures, but what an awesome shot! Really fantastic detail and colour. It's just a great composition!
Excellent work!
Today I move back to my homeland, Canada. After 11 years away, it will be great to be home!
All the best of the day!

Hi Greg,
It's a beautiful catch. The DOF is well for this picture,
the wasp is sharp and the BG is in OOF, so its well seen from the BG, The composition and POV are very good.
Very well done.

What is sharpness? - I only can tell you - look at this photo, than you will know.
That's the perfect shot.
That wasp is sitting a little abstract on this flower, that doesn't look comfortable!
Thanks and greetings

This is VERY well done! The details are great and I love the fact that we can even see the textures on the wasp's body. Good composition too. This is how it should be done!

(PS: Have you tried cropping a bit off the bottom, to get rid of that horizontal blade of grass right at the very bottom of the photo? I find that it distracts my focus just a little bit.)

Hi Greg,
Superb wasp shot here. I was so use to your beautiful butterfly shots, I was fooled by this for a moment. But like your butterflies, this one is perfect also.

Very good photo, Grzegorz,

ID for this insect: Vespidae, of course, but genus Polistes (klecanka), rather small wasps building small, umbrella-like nests without outer cover.

Best wishes, Marek

Superbe macro details!
Sharpness and exposure couldn't be better. Composition is good and blured BG is beautiful. Best of all is the visual impact it has.
Great work and TFS
