[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is another nice little crab spider. This one is lurking on a butterfly bush. He's not much bigger than the head of a pin.

I have a new lens. :-) It's a 50mm F1.8. The prices are really low on those now. I have it hooked up to my extension tube 25mm. It allows me to really take some close shots. Like this one.

Hope you enjoy and hope your weekend goes well.
Reid

Hiya Reid

fantastic shot here, the thing I really love with this image is that we can see the flower so can really judge the size of the little spider. Superb sharpness and detail. I think your going to have some superb results with that new lens if this is anything to go by. I am looking forward to seeing a whole new minature world.

TFS regards helen

Hola Reid,

Exquisita macro !!! muy acertado el efecto borroso que has conseguido, los colores están geniales y la nitidez de la araña perfecta. Buen trabajo.

Saludos,

Hello again Reid. Ah, new lens open a another door to all kinds of possibilities. Nice capture of the little guy - he is sort of peeking out from under the flower - nice colors.

Hi Reid,
Great image again!! Beautiful colors and a very good balance between softness and sharpness. Good focused on the spider in combination with a good dof.
