Hi Res Wasp's Eye Galaxy

Well, with all the incessant rain in Brisbane, my telescope hasn't seen the dark of night for most of 2022, so I have turned my hand to macro photography.

This is a Paper Wasp (approx.10mm long) lying on its nest alongside our car port. They are not aggressive unless you are clumsy and hit the nest with the Speedlite flash. But even then, the two that landed on my arm did not sting me, they just checked me out.

Cheers

Dennis
