Looks like the eggs are being well tended. Super shots, Tom, and very interesting. I've never peered inside a wasp nest before.


Dixie, to be honest I don't think that too many of us have ....It is kind of interesting tho, at least to me. When I stand and look at the nest I cannot see the eggs at all...just wish I could get a better focus on the eggs themselves, but that is pretty hard to do, at least so far, and thanks for following along with the series....Tom

For the first shot my initial thought was people burying their head in the sand rather than look at what is happening to the world around them. For the second photo my first thought was what a great close up of the face. Well done.
thanks Dennis

Tom, I took another look at your photos. I'm also impressed with your intestinal fortitude in getting that close to this wasp's nest. These little buggers can get REALLY feisty when you get THAT close.
I like the fact that you can clearly see the eggs in each chamber of the nest. One of these ladies always builds a nest in my mailbox each spring. I'll use 'bug spray' the first time I see her, and even if I get rid of that one, if it's early enough in the Spring, she'll be replaced by another. And - NO - I haven't had the guts to try to get a photo of her in action.

Thanks for the comment. one of my goals with this is to see the progression of the eggs, hopefully I can continue till they hatch. fingers crossed and feet ready to run. lol

seems to never fail....all we do is wish for spring...flowers start to bloom, we start our veggie gardens and everything looks good, and what happens BAM a frost always seems to sneak back in for a reality check.... :)

yes I have seen these setups. I usually use my speedlight with my diffuser. haven't used the ringlight much at all. this was just a good opportunity to try it out. thanks for the input tho. Tom

sorry but at the moment this is the best subject I've got. and since it is cooperating with me: practice practice practice.
Settings were: ISO 200, 1/25 sec at f/8, ringlight illumination.
