One from the calendar gardens.

Sorry the wasp is not facing inward for a better comp. sometimes we just don't have the time to perfectly set it up. I remember they were very active this day.

Thank you for commenting,

I can see the flower buds through its transparent, faceted wings. So clear! I must admit, this wasp looks pretty threatening. Great shot!

Strong focus on the flowers and the bee. Good DOF with the blurred background. Very nice, Sandi.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Looks like he has been stung in the rumble seat Tigz. I like the composition. Good closeup.

I do not believe I have seen a shot so crisp and clear of them Sandi. Fine shot indeed.

Beautiful work, Sandi. We have tons of these little buggers around here right now. I'm not sure how you were able to get that close. Perfect close up. DoF, clarity, etc. all perfect as usual.

The fine bokeh makes that all attention is drawn to the flowers and the wasp. Very good and detailed image, Sandi!

I have the same trouble, Sandi. Bees and wasps just never seem to want to cooperate! Still a gorgeous shot any way you look at it.

Couldn't you have whispered some sweat somethings in its ears? Do wasps have ears? lol.

The detail is extraordinary, Sandi.
