I was thinking more about 'an assassin in disguise' since wasps are known as being predators rather than pollen gatherers.

Nice macro tho.

Comment by Covert_Oddity:
The book itself certainly looks interesting but there's a lot wrong with the shot.

First and most obvious is what looks like a duvet or sheet in the lower left with what I think is a hand holding it. Next is the background, I'm guessing it's a bed and I'm not sure what made you choose that, I think a desk or stone would have made a much better simpler background to keep emphasis on the book.

Lastly is the way you have chosen to take the shot. For me most of the interest is in the front cover and I think this should have been your main focus, but you have left it at an angle partially covered up and made the focus the hand written text. I can see the need to include the date but I think you could have found a better way to present this.

I really like the coloring of this but I think the blanket in the forground takes away from this. Either a tighter crop or remove the blanket.

Somehow I have almost no feeling towards this image but I can't think why. I can't tell whether you're associated with them or not, the sky and beach are quite dull, the lead woman looks disinterested too. It doesn't move me but I can't just discount it. Strange.

I'll have to read you thoughts on it afterwards.

Nice capture. I think a tighter crop wouldve had more of a POW!
