Click it! You KNOW you want to see it bigger!

That little spike at the end is the stinger! Ready to inject a large and very potent does of venom!

Scale is in centimeters, like the civilized world:

It's a bit curled up due to being deceased but stretched out it reached 3cm. Go get a ruler and check that out!

Wow! Thanks a great deal @curie!

Wow! Amazing macro work, buddy! 🤩👍

Thank you my friend!

Wow. Three centimeters long. That is long. I think if that flew in my window, I might just let him have the place. Was this in a museum or some place like that. That first macro shot is outstanding. Great work, mweich:)

Yeah, this was found outside my house on the road. :)
If one does come into your house, turn out the lights, they will fly towards and out of the windows as having indoor lights on confuses them.
Thank you for your feedback!

Fortunately, none up here in the north:)

hi @mweich
absolutely amazing how you made this guy a close up !! congratulation

I literally hate Hornets as they are such a nuisance. We have to keep taking their nests down as they are always in a walkway where someone can get stung. 3 cm is pretty big.

Yeah, they can be dangerous. This one is quite big at 3cm, but I had misidentified it! It's not the biggest one, I found one of those today...I'll post the shots from that later!

One of the ugliest creature in the planet, a casual look itself make people annoyed and you are spending time to capture them so up close..Wow..good effort. And seems interesting you are trying to record some dimensions.

Any good photos and keep posting..

Thanks, this one wasn't much of a danger when taking the photos though. :P
