Oxyopes sp

I took this shot in the front yard, before the weather turn nasty, as usual, this place is always full with surprises. I took quite a number of shots with different position as it move around to avoid my disturbance. I have much control of the situation because lynx spider have a short eye site of about 10cm.

I find the site below quite useful.

Hi Kean!
Nice soft colours and excellent sharpness!
Regards,
Zeca

Clear details with good exposure, comp, and color Kean.
Good DOF throughout the spiders body also..
Just a suggestion. Try a POV a bit more to the front, so we can the oxyopidaes face better.
Well done,
Howard

Hello Kean I must say this is very sharp for a 1/50sec. I see your cam was at f2.7 to get a bit more DOF would want to close the apperature a little although this would result in even less shutter speed a bit of flash would help. Just some advice as it's a great image as it is tfs rgds Necip.
