Red Paper Wasp

Quixdraw, It's quite strange for me for I can be in the field among them and they pay no attention to me. I walk around the yard and I get tagged from one out of nowhere. A few summers ago one got me on the top of my head and that hurt like the dickens.

Had the same happen twice out here, standing still, not near anything, never even saw what hit me! Both times in the left arm.

Thanks, Quixdraw. These red ones are more aggressive around the yard compared to others that I come across.

The wasps out here are really strange, the least aggressive I've encountered in the 6 states I've lived in.

An 8th Grade Graduation Procession

I had a guy front and center with a phone set up on a tripod at a show I photograph for the cast every year. No way to work around it but with strange crops and sometimes post, a lot of work and nasty!

Used lenses

Yes, both, and Roberts Used Photo Pro as well, B&H and Roberts several times. Never got a bad lens. You do need to pay attention to the statement of condition and how that compares to your equipment care and standards. Most often they are better than described.
