Good shot of this unusual guy, nice job on the fill to even out the light.

What a cool and apt name for this wasp !!. Fill has balanced the contrast nicely.

Nice image of an attractive species - I've seen similar wasps, they are eye-catching.

Hi

Nature is just strange at times - a fine image of a difficult to capture subject, I like it


All the best
