Paper wasp, probably Polistes sp. Very nice perspective. I like the depiction of the cells with the various stages of development. Wish the bright red wire weren't there, but we can't help it, considering these wasps like to nest close to or inside our houses :).

That is close. It is good you could capture it with the cells. Had never seen it so closely. Thanks for sharing.

That's the power of photography. It shows us details which one is not likely to see in naked eye. The depth of field has come out well. Wish that red pipe was not there in the background :( . However, as Abhishek says that these are found in homes, so we can't grumble.

Cheers,
