Just seen this for the first time in my 35 years of life... Was like "Want to see something strange?", to the ppl beside me... Thought only humans knew how to waste time, smh. Then again- how else can the creature warm up the fluid? *************Amazing God************* — Preceding

Original - A paper wasp (Polistes dominula) heating a bubble of regurgitated fluid at the sun light. This is a common practice among many winged insects, and it is believed to be a way to regulate body temperature
Reason
A detailed high quality depiction of insect behaviour, adding enc value to the articles

Oppose Too little of the insect is in focus. To be blunt, it just isnt up to the standards of insect photos.

Weak support A little focus stacking would have helped maybe (one antenna out of focus and one marginally in bothers me slightly). --

Support Nice was of getting warm food. And good focus on mandibles and bubble.

Support. Although DOF is a bit low (which is really hard to avoid) the focus is placed just right and composition and angle are perfect. --
