         Macro photography is close-up photography of small subjects, including things like bugs and flowers. Officially, pictures of small subjects with a magnification of “life size” or greater are considered as true macro, meaning the image size on the camera senors, not the computer screens,  is the same as or geater than your subjects.  This is achieved through the lenses with Macro capabilities, i.e. allow focusing on extremely closed distance.  But such close-up would impose lighting challenge, i.e. the lens could block the light for proper illumination &exposure.

2. 3. 4. 5. The mouthpart of the hornet is composed of two powerful jaws, as cutting or biting tools.  A small group of hornets are able to  distory a whole honey bee kingdom, since the only defensive tool of a honey bee is the one-time stinger,however , beside the deadly jaws the hornet is also equipped with a multiple-times stinger. The honey bee's mouthpart is just a suction tube  for sucking nectar, no match to the hornet. I am not sure if the bees would sting eachother during fighting. Please let me know if you have any idea. 6. Big jaw with sawteeth
