Each week, one of the moderators or administrators selects an image that, for whatever reason, catches their eye. Please feel free to add your comments here. Vigorous discussion of the images and techniques is welcome and encouraged. Criticism of any mod for their choice is not.

This Weeks Selection is by Ozimax ozimax wrote:G It seems that there has been an increase in images posted over the last week or so. There are some beauties for sure. Geoff's UK odyssey has been excellent, but I can't get a 4th consecutive POTW for Geoff. (I don't think he will mind.  ) Some things are just plain difficult to photograph; kids, dogs, dragonflies...and wasps. Technically maybe the wasp is not as difficult to capture as a dragonfly, but the little blighters can be dangerous when they're disturbed. (As I mentioned in the original post discussion, I got stung by one some years ago, just below the eye!) Congrats Chris on POTW. I selected the above photo, but not for any particular reason. They're all good, especially up close. BTW, the E-M1 holds it's own against most, and is not disgraced when compared to the D800. Ozi.

Damn fine selection Ozi and cracking image Chris.
I found a can of degreaser and cigarette lighter sorts them out (albeit leaving a few marks on the wall)

Well done Chris. Great shot(s) and very worthy POTW. Good choice Ozi, and no I don't mind at all that you didn't choose one of mine!
