A Few Wasp Shots

[canon400d]

This is the first time I have taken wasp shots with the MPE which I am still struggling to get the hang on. The shots were taken at different magnifications. Any advice will be well received and appreciated.
Regards
Bob

Thanks for looking Phil and advising me. I really must remember the eye focus.

These are all very good Bob - as Phil mentioned it's normally considered essential to get clean focus on the eyes (just as with humans).

cool shots. Such detail. I have got to get a macro!!!

Brave man, glad to see you survived without vindictive, percussive, extravagant stinging from that little bleeder! He looks rough!
Ican't help but like the first one because of the angle of the paper against the rich red wood grain. His little antenna is in impeccable detail.

Hi Bob, so you found yourself a Wasp :clap good for you!
I see Phil and Brian already gave you some excellent advice.

You'll get there Bob, I'm going to take mine with me to USA,
in the hope of finding something cool.

Thanks for sharing Bob :thumb ... Skippy :D
