Hard to get these little buggers (actually wasps) to stand still and smile for the camera. Wish I could get better DOF.

Comments and suggestions welcome and appreciated.

great subject and captures. For more DOF you would of course need to use a smaller aperture, f3.2 gave you a fast shutter speed though which was probably more important given you were on ISO 6400 (I've never shot that high). If the light was that bad you might have used flash but not everyone's cup of tea.
