Description

Believe this is a paper wasp. This shot was in the cool of morning after a rain last night. Thanks for looking.. Bruce Update on the converter- I received my converter for the 50mm lens. After some test shots, the lens and converter alone are just about the same magnification that I had with the lens and close up filters alone. But I do have about twice the working distance and the clarity is much better than the50MM + close up filters had. The good thing is, I can still use the close up filters along with the converter+lens for even closer shots. But I still have to work on getting the flash/diffusion better as the converter adds about and inch to the length of the lens.

Richard, The length of that lens is why I will stick with my set up. That thing is too long to hold steady. And I am getting 1:1 on this set up. So its all good. And not a mimic, I am positive this is a Paper Wasp.
