seems a bit to much light glare on the left side, but enjoy this one over all.

That's quite the wasp! Can't say I have much love for those types of insects. Good colors.

Too bad the head of the wasp is hidden.

i like the setting and colors. I think if you held in there and took more shots you would have a winning composition and better view of the wasp.

This was captured at a very good moment.
i don't like the fact that there's a big splotch of unfocused flower right in the middle of the picture.
Nice border.

Nice find, super sharp. The open flower in the foreground is a bit distracting, but only slightly so.

The wasp looks dead! Did you kill it? Are you color blind? The wasp color is more yellowish than the flowers. Anyway I'll give you a 10, where's 11? Or 12? Or 13?

I think a little more contrast would make this picture "pop".
