Tiny little insect, a wasp I think, with a red abdomen.

I really like the upside down presentation. It makes the image very striking.

Thank you for your comment. Yes, you're right. Upside down made the picture more beautiful for me (the water drop looking almost like a little snow globe).

Oh! I thought you had stood on your head. Was thinking of trying that technique, but I'll cross it off my "to do" list

Thank you, Chip = I find the Vivitar to be much more easy and forgiving to handle than my other 50mm 1:1 macro (Super-Tak preset).

Now I understand. The camera is upside down on a tripod so your hands are free to balance when you go feet up to look through the viewfinder..
