This thing looks very nasty
What a clarity
Lots of detail good photo
the question is "how?"
lol you were lucky to get that close without them paying you a visit and then you would find out how much their sting does sting. There is a bigger one in the bush; now they do hurt!!
You publish all the shooting data so that I admire. This proves that you are a great photographer.
Now an enlightened age, a lot of knowledge as long learning, can be mastered. I do not like shooting data erased photographs, unless it's really lost.
I like it Gerry – nice clean green background choice too. I reckon it needed more DoF tho
Looks like bad karma tho – very stingy…
Where are these and what are they look just mean

the real question is actually "why?" 😉
+Ian Browne , i'll pass on the getting stung bit 🙂
these are pretty common ones i think, I see them up and down the coast, just pita's really but probably form a key part in the life cycle of something 🙂
Thanks +david Liu 🙂
+Rodney Campbell yeah prolly 🙂 the green is just a paddock next door.
+Donna Groussman
wasps, everywhere 😉
+Gerard Blacklock oh they are wasp big ones I got those around my house but not that big
