I really like the angle on this shot BE. The eyes look painted on. Well done.

Now that's a beauty of a pic. Great shot BE- great wasp, great lighting and good composition. The wasp has an amazing leather look to it with just a hint of hairs.
Brilliant.

Thanks very much for the great compliment, I'll be glad to share this info. this shot was taken in Manual mode, with Manual focusing, on ISO of 200, 1/125 at f16, on tripod with an off-camera flash, with a remote shutter release, and the lens used was a Tamron 28-300/Ext. tubes.(68mm)

Thank you Brian, I really appreciate the extremely kind words on this one. it was fun to take. He wasnt aggressive at all. (I caught that, by the way) I told him to shave, but, he refused.
