I love hornets, I don’t like being around them but I’ve always thought that there are much worse jobs if you have to be reincarnated as an insect. / Nobody messes with a hornet. I was thinking of the Book of Kells when I got the idea for this. I worked for about a month burying small details in it so it’d be a decent conversation piece. 100% from scratch in 3DsMax and PS Add theyellowfury to your watchlist / Image copyright © 2008 Simon Deevy.

Macro shot

I found this huge wasp having a quick drink from a pond, I love the reflection of it’s antenna in the water.

I was looking for subjects to Photograph in my Parents’ garden and was about to put my Camera away when my Mum reminded me that there was a nest of Paper Wasps just above the door of the grannyflat in their house. I climbed up on to a ladder and slowly moved toward the Wasps. They weren’t at all fazed by my presence. I fired a test flash and they didn’t seem to care at all. Once I knew that they were relatively calm, I was able to snap off a few shots. I didn’t stay too long though, as I didn’t want to find out if their patience would wear thin! This shot was by far the best one of the day.

Hornet queen (Vespa cabro)
-
A typical yellowjacket worker is about 12 mm (0.5 inches) long, with alternating bands on the abdomen while the queen is larger, about 19 mm (0.75 inches) long. Mouthparts are well-developed for capturing and chewing insects, with a proboscis for sucking nectar, fruit and other juices. Workers are sometimes confused with honey bees, especially when flying in and out of their nests. Yellowjackets, in contrast to honey bees, are not covered with tan-brown dense hair on their bodies and lack the flattened hairy hind legs used to carry pollen. Yellowjackets have a lance-like stinger with small barbs and typically sting repeatedly, though occasionally the sting becomes lodged and pulls free of the wasp’s body; the venom, like most bee/wasp venoms, is primarily only dangerous to those who are allergic, unless a victim receives a large number of stings. All species have yellow or white on the face. Nests are built in trees, shrubs or in protected places such as inside human-made structures (attics, hollow walls or flooring, in sheds, under porches and eaves of houses), or in soil cavities, mouse burrows, etc. Nests are made from wood fiber chewed into a paper-like pulp. Yellowjackets have two antennae and two wings. These two wings are distinctive because they fold in half length-wise.(wiki) /

A macro look at a wasp
-
There is much in my work about hurt or even death and dying – these are issues that tie in closely with the themes I am in the early stages of investigating through my visual imagery work in the long term. But this image of the poor little European wasp came about in this way purely through the chance finding him/her dead in this curled-up pose, yet with the beautiful wings so wonderfully whole and unharmed, on the floor in the corner of my room… Sony Alpha 350, Sony 100mm Macro Lens, Focal Length 100mm. FEATURED IN ‘AVANT-GARDE’! FEATURED IN ‘OUTSIDERS’! Companion image to ‘Sometimes It Can Be Too Hard…’ BOTH IMAGES FEATURED IN ‘SETS OF TWO’! / Edited Version.

So you caught me eating this piece of wood? ...for that you must die…

No bigger than a pin head. It was emerging from the nest as I was taking a photograph.

Featured in Bee and Wasp Passions and in Bug Hunt Spring can be a time of amazing colors and contrasts. Recently I came across this scene with my macro lens. A wild rose (Rosa acicularis), with its amazing pink and yellow, hosts an iridescent green wasp (hymenoptera pteromalidae). The colors were amazing in “real life”, and captured perfectly by the Nikon D300 and Sigma 150 mm macro lens at the beach on Vancouver Island, Canada.

My original is graphite pencil on watercolour paper. Been sitting on it for a while and finally gotten around to putting him on a shirt. You won’t see it even in larger view, but every part is triangulated, as in an architectural spaceframe.
