The Visiting Swarm

I posted a shot of these guys the other day in my second album. They are European wasps & they have taken a liking to our fruit trees. I was worried at first getting too close but they are so busy doing what they are doing to worry about me. I just had to be careful of the ones on the ground

Very nice!

I've always wondered what purpose wasps serve. Now I know they are just photographic models. Great series of photos.

[Sharon Lee]

Love this capture…

[Wendy Bowden]

@cageycanary Thanks, it would be great if they would leave but we didn't clear the fruit so it
s our fault they are there. Not giving them the opportunity next year

[Livia]

Great details! And looks very cool in B&W! Awesome capture. 8)

Great capture. He looks like he could be pretty nasty if you disturbed him.

[Mags]

Very cool capture, Wendy!

[Kathy Burzynski]

Wow this is incredible
But... are you crazy??? I am WAY to scared to get that close!

[Paula]

Great close-up!

[Ann Stenson]

Cool capture Wendy!

[Caryn]

Great detail on those back hairs!

[Netkonnexion]

Wow! Great shot. There are some really sinister lines and tones in this. Cool take.

[Lara]

Great capture, very clear. It almost looks robotic!

[Wendy Bowden]

@rah2012 I thought it looked alien like. They grossed me out a bit at first but Iiked how the pics turned out

[Mike]

I like the idea of swapping over to B&W, gives a different perspective and challennge . I still haven't got a decent wasp picture like this, nice one.

[Meredith Jones]

Fantastic focus!

[Crystal]

The focus in the shot is impressive, well done!
