Wow excellent detail. You are brave. I only ever had a close encounter with a wasp twice and both times I got stung.

@onewing Thank you Babs I managed to get very close about 6" from the lens to the wasp, when Simon was small we were playing football and I disturbed a wasp nest as I collected the ball from a hedge, ended visiting Hospital, they counted 23 stings on my body and I had a jab against Anaphylactic Shock , they itched like mad for days after, moral of the story always send the boy in to retrieve the ball, lol:)

@miata2u Thank you very much for your comment and fav. they are both appreciated Peggy, it was a little breezy so had to hold the leave with the other hand to keep it still and get a clear shot:)

@quietpurplehaze Thank you very much Hazel as always your comments and Fav. are appreciated, as can be seen from my comments to Babs & Peggy I was very close and put myself at risk of getting more than a good shot, lol:):)
