Paper Wasp & Tropical Flowers

A paper wasp (Polistes sp.) clings to the edge of a brightly colored tropical flower. Its reddish-brown body shows defined yellow striping along the abdomen and thorax. The background is filled with soft orange, pink, and yellow hues, creating a vivid contrast against the insect’s sharp body details and folded wings. The wasp is positioned upside down, using its legs to grasp the flower petal.
