Been a while since I've posted some shots.

First one a random wasp - vespula vulgaris, eating rotting fruit. Shot handheld on the ground with my 600d and 100mm. ISO400, f/4, 1/80s.

These made with ISO100, f/9 + f/11, 1/200s + f/250s
I would appreciate any feedback because of the new setup (flash etc). Thank you for watching.

Love the backlighting of the first wasp shot, aesthetically very pleasing with all those glowing warm colours.
