The image is a close-up of the head and abdomen of a hornet. The hornet's head is in focus, while the background is completely black. The head is elongated and has a large, round, yellowish-orange eye in the center. The eye is surrounded by a black and white striped pattern. The body of the hornet is covered in small hairs, which are visible on the top and bottom of the image. The hairs appear to be slightly curled and have a rough texture. The insect's legs are long and thin, and its antennae are visible at the bottom. The image is taken from a slightly elevated angle, making the hornets head the focal point of the frame.
