Spider


mplonsky

The spider had a web a few inches from a white building. The shot was taken at night with the aid of a step stool and flash light. The critter is about a cm long and rather fat which made the DOF issue difficult. The image is a composite of two taken a second apart in an effort to increase the very limited DOF at this high magnification.

Since macros are about details, I encourage viewing the large version.

As always a stunning shot!

No wonder you are called King of the Bugmen,

and named in hushed tones and wonder.

Great shot, could you show us the two images? I would like to understand how you managed this; Ive been trying to do the same but cant seem to frame correctly a bug for two consecutive shots, not to mention changing DOF.. impressive accomplishments!!!!! When will we see you in NG ;^)

Great shot!!! Perfect DOF and also very curious about how you did this with two images. Very kind you share all this knowledge. I think we all learn a lot of you and you're a great inspiration to keep trying.

Like all of your portfolio, it is a wonderful shot very well captured. It will inspire nightmares for those who suffer from arachnophobia
