I think this is a leafcutter judging by the pair of scissors it uses for mandibles.

Cracking photo, the lense looks to be just perfect for the subject

The colours are just about the nicest natural range I've seen. The sharpness is just right - not "clinical"! And the depth of field is perfect for the subject!

Absolutely superb

Looks more like a Dasypoda sp... Pantaloon Bees because of the hairy back legs... this one's been collecting a white pollen from something.
Crackin' picture Grommit!!
