Wasp is very good - those dark insects are never easy to capture good detail; evidently a very dark green species.

Omri,

Your pictures always give me something to aspire to. I am especially impressed with the detail on the wasps.

I'll echo these sentiments. Excellent series, plenty of good detail, nice 'n' sharp with exposure spot on, with good DOF. Pity about #3 as it had the best potential for composition I felt.

Thank you :D These are 2.1:1 so you can probably calculate its length (I don't know how).

Ah about 7.4mm long assuming #2 is uncropped.

Calculation is bug length/picture length (longest side) X (sensor size/magnification)
so in this case
=(15/22)X(22.7/2.1)
