wasps hornets & bees The Groomer

I did not noticed the ant drinking the water off the wing until I

brought the images on screen... I was delighted to have capture a

clear view of it... Your comments are welcome as always. Thanks, Line

Awesome!  And, I thank one of your best macros.  I like it a lot. 

Phenomenal shot! I'm with Bill, one of your best... Mike

Not only the macro did but visual effect is very interesting too,like it.

Me too!  Thanks for sharing with PN :-)

The vignette like background effect against the resolution of the insect make for a spectacular image.  Well done. Line

Thank you all for your visit and comments. Much appreciated!

Sincerely, Line

The lens is Tokina 100mm f/2.8 AT-X M100 Pro D. This is a focus stack... Using a lens capable of 1:1 macro does not mean you are shooting macro unless you are getting at macro distance. 100mm allows me to be at 11.8" from the subject, a 50mm lens would require that you get a lot closer...

Beautifully composed with wonderful light and colour.  Well done.
