WASPS

When you have nothing better to photograph,
take your macro-lens and shoot some wasps.
Believe me, there are plenty of those critters around.
It is difficult to eat outdoors. They come in numbers
and take over your ham and cheeze as if they had paid for it.

...as you can see, there is considerable difficulty
with the 'depth of field'.
If you shoot with a narrow aperture to increase your d.o.f.
the shutterspeed is too slow and the wings are just a blur.
If, however, you want to shoot fast enough to freeze the wing movement,
your d.o.f. suffers....
So, whoever said that photography is not the art of compromise?

...as always, these images are more interesting in detail
when viewed in the large format.

watch out....don't get stung in your lip....Christin did...
and it is no fun.
