Well since I just received my macro base-stay (stroboframe) and sync-cord and flash yesterday and knowing that the temperature will drop from 82 degrees F today to a high of 52 degrees tomorrow, I took the day off from work
This will probably be the last opportunity here for me until next season.
I like the results using the off-camera flash setup, but I have room for improvement. LordV has given me some tips/advise thanks! The first shot will give you what kind of flying insect circus I was watching today under the canopy of oak trees. I have no clue what type of plant these blooms come from, but I fully intend to plant some in my backyard

#12 As you can see we found where the Yellow Jackets were coming from. I had two friends help hold the palm fronds aside for me...lol...one friend said..."Roy, ummm...theyre not moving now and I think that means they are on alert! My buddy was serious as a heart-attack...I really don't know what angry Yellow Jackets do and thankfully today I didn't find out
This nest was about 8cm in diameter.
