Up close & personal

2006.11.01


Whatever you think of wasps, you will have to admit at they look (and are) determined and powerful. It suited me fine to have a big, solid DSLR between me and the wasp. It was busy, so I didn't offer to wipe the sweat of its brow (see the digital enlargement of an earlier photo).
Exposure: e-300 with 30mm macro. 1/250 f7.1 at ISO 100 (exp compensation -1/3)

aggiechristine Of course, your photography is spectacular, but just as great is your sense of humor! I've laughed out loud at many of your captions ~ thanks!

jorgen Thanks for the very nice coments! I don't really like insects either, but I can sit for hours studying the details. However creepy some of the insects are, they are very well designed.

But, cikina, I will make it good with a nice cat tomorrow.

jorgen Yes, briagha, I have the first photo as a background images for a 17" screen: the wasp is here huge, nearly the same size as the blown-up one. Looks good!
