Splodge: The image is mine, the wasp was dead on the deck. The photo was taken postmortem. The best I can do to help your investigation is to give the CC tapes to CSI for analysis and pixel-restoration to find out whodunnit

Gran: Yes, it turned out grainy/noisy due to the submission size restrictions (<600 KB). The wood grain texture is driving the JPG compression nuts.

The original is better, ready for sharing. I will accept all major currencies in small unmarked bills.

I suck at macro shots. My hands are too shaky. My camera sucks at macro shots too.

I would like to recall the image from the source queue. Please use a different source for the H2H round 1.

I should've used the assortment of smilies available at my disposition to convey the humorous lighthearted intent of my forum posts relating to the subject of the dead wasp source.

Does it mean I'll have to return the money I already received for the original?

On a serious note: yes, macro shots are a bitch, you need a good macro lens, a steady tripod, and a series of images at different focus distances to be combined together in a better DOF image

One thing I've learned about H2H's - this is the FIRST ONE I haven't participated in too, applegirl Wink - is everyone bitches about the source.

Then when they lose, they say, "well, the source really sucked".

I pretty much just said, "I got spanked, and it was fun"

It will be interesting to see how many rocket ships and moon landings are made out of that wasp, let alone the amber.

WAIT! I have an idea, let's put it in an aquarium!!!!
