Protective Wasp

[Nat]

Hi! I'm new here. Some awesome photography! Hope to learn a thing or two to improve my shooting and processing. Going to take a LONG time to view all the great stuff already here. In the meantime, here is one of my favorite insect shots.....

Great shot, well lit and looks aggressive. look foreword to seeing moor.

That's a great capture. I've been trying to get a good shot of one of those guys for weeks!

Nice image, very sharp.

Thank you for the comments. I loved shooting these.....they sure do stare you down....but if you do get too close, they WILL come after you. Having had my share of wasp stings.....I maintained my distance......ready to run if necessary!! I was using a ring flash, 105 macro manual lens, and my Nikon D90.

That's why I've been struggling - I'm a bit allergic to their stings so I have to keep my distance!
