Tiny Spider - (enlarge)

Each of you has expressed your interest in this composition and I am appreciative of your encouraging remarks, truly thank each one for taking the time to visit!

Kindest regards, Gail

Thank you for your visit and encouraging words of critique. I have Mike Palermiti to thank for his continual urging for me to practice my handholding. I find it very challenging and am hoping soon to do it a lower shutter speeds.

Hope you are enjoying your weekend Antony, kind regards, Gail

Sincere thanks my friend, it is good to hear you enjoyed this image! Your compliments are truly welcomed.

Hugs from Canada, Gail

Thank you for taking the time to visit and for letting me know that you are OK and did not suffer terribly from the storm that was threatening Mexico, so relieved to hear that news.

Wishing you the very best always, Gail

I think your journey into Macro photography is coming on in leaps and bounds........this is lovely and a real tribute to the wisdom of Mike Palermiti whom I know has offered some great advice previously.

I really like this, I think it is one of your best!

I would try a little crop here....horizontally from the top of the paler coloured V right across. It leaves a kind of pano finish....but I think it looks really effective.

Sincere Compliments Gail

PS I have just viewed the original too and it shows the vision you have employed to arrive at this image........great work!

Perfect DoF and composition!! The "Spiderman" is just on the "golden point"!!

I've never seen a spider this colour before , it looks like a jewelled brooch ! Great image . Bill

 thanks for your kind words and advice, at first I did not know what you meant but now I do. It would look good that way.

The first image down below is the original, the second is another shot I took, do you mean to crop the image from the original version, or crop it from the one posted?? (doesn't take much to confuse me ;-)

Let me know when you have time!!! thanks so much Gail
