Hello Kevin,
a phantastic picture! The curved abdomen was just right to get the entire insect into the frame in a suitable way. You selected the optimal point of view and depth of field, focused exactly and show the insect with high sharpness. Very impressive!!
Best wishes, Peter

Hello Kevin,
A fantastic capture of a Pelecinid Wasp, must be new on TN, with fine sharpness and detail. This is taken from an excellent POV, technically first class and well composed with a fine OOF natural BG.
Well done, Kevin, and thanks for showing us this one.
Best wishes, Ivan

Hi Kevin

One more fantastic macro from you, my friend and yet another interesting species you present us.
Leaving aside for a minute this impeccable shot, i would like to point out the amazing things of mother nature again: i am blown away by this another demonstration of simetry and geometry - that awesome abdomen of this pelecinid wasp almost forms a regular hexagon; if the last 2segments were equaly long with the other ones, they would make this exact structure, all segments having the same angle between them. That's a wow from me! :)
Now back to the great shot - i simply love the sharpnes of every details here as well as the perfect DOF you used here. I would REALLY be interested in the exif of this shot, so that i can learn to take photos of such quality one day.
Other than that, a terrific flash management and a great exposure, made sure you had the correct contrast and colors, too.
All-in-all: magnificent! A favorite!

Bravo and TFS
