Re the questions about the camera used for this photo, note that when BG images are viewed via the Opera web browser, one can, by right-clicking the image, view the camera information, provided that the software used to transfer the photo from camera to computer has captured that info. In this case, Opera tells me, among other things, that the photo was taken with a Canon EOS 40D.

Cremastinae
I have been looking at your beautiful photos of this wasp!! Just wondering what kind of camera you are using and how did you find the wasp? The detail is really great. I believe this is what mine is also. Thanks so much for your help.

Thanks
My camera is just a point-and-shoot Canon PowerShot (SD1100 IS Digital Elph). At night to "wind down" I go out and photograph the bugs that come to the lights. It is really a never ending supply, and they do all of the work! When I go out during the day I have to hunt a lot harder.

Thanks for the tip about goin
Thanks for the tip about going out at night to look for bugs. Quite often we will put out a sheet with a light to look for moths and always find a few other things as well. I will remember this. Your camera does a really nice job!!
