I like this side-view; it really shows the detail that you capture so well. I like studying what insects really look like. They're marvelously efficient. Well done!
All the wonders you seek are within yourself. Always glad to see visitors at My Gallery and thanks for your continued kind words and constant support. Anita
You are so good at these close-ups that I hesitate to suggest anything, but I ran this photo through NeatImage (to reduce the background graininess), and the result also seemed to bring the insect into sharper relief.
Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.

Does it get any better than this? I don't think so. My goodness, what a wasp! The clarity of the capture made me move away from the computer screen. Super! Superb! Stupendous! Mine!

While not a huge fan of bugs, I admit Kristof, this is fantastic. Such beautiful color & wonderful sharp detail ! Just got this in my voting booth & gave it the 10 it deserves. Well done !
I just now saw this on the opening page of caedes. Wow. It's scary for me to see this, as I am highly allergic to these wasps! Very good closeup tho. The details are amazing. Verena
