Wasps were sitting on both sides of all the leaves adjoining the nest. It amazed me how still they sat while I poked the macro lens gently into their territory.

  Fantastic work Debbie! I have never seen the face of a wasp before!
Barrington is a little settlement at the base of the moutains, we were advised not to try and drive up too Barrington Tops while we were there!

  Holy cow! I thought you would have used at least a 500mm lens, Debbie! Macro? You are very brave and it paid off. This is a superb wasp macro image!

  Love it when an extraordinary macro is taken despite possible pain/agony. ;-)
Debbie, this is brilliant - wonderful, tack-sharp details and mirror-like composition. Can't wait to see it again next month...
