amazing focus! did it stay still for a long time or were you quick enough to get the focus just right? Most of my insect subjects seem to be hyperactive!

@groovygirlrn I use a bridge camera, which is like a DSLR but without the option to change lenses. For this shot I used Raynox 4x macro conversion lens which attached to the front of my camera - a bargain at £58.

@aoignacio Thanks Andrew. I think that I was aided on this occasion by the fact that the wasp was dead!
May 11th, 2012  
@jantan hahah oh that does help a lot! They are much less scary that way =)
