takes a brave man to be that close to a wasp. I'd run like there's no tomorrow. Bad memories of kicking a hornet's mound....

Hi David
nice shot of the Queen Wasp. IMO is a bit to far to the left of the picture. :toast:

Superb detail and colour. I think it would be nice to have it a bit further towards top right leaving more space forward of its head.
