Impressive capture with excellent DOF and sharpness. Top of this lady's wish list for Christmas should be a lady shaver ;-))
It must be a regional variance, because ours don't have that much stubble and hardly any at all on the abdomen.

Paco, bienvenido a TN, es agradable ver a más españoles en TN, y más aun con la calidad de las fotos que publicas. Ambas arañas están magníficas, el detalle y la calidad son muy buenas, pero en ambas creo que el recorte no es afortunado. A mi personalmente me hubiera gustado o ver la araña entera aprovechando los 800x800 que te ofrece TN, o una toma más cercana (ya se que pido mucho) con un recorte mayor. Gracias por ofrecernos estos macros tan buenos.

Welcome to TN,
Well it is a nice shot, but it would have been much better to get the full spider. A better note would be welcome, TN is "Learning about nature through photography"...
You choosed the right setting, good sharpness.

Very good macro Paco.
I like the croping.
Very good details and nice colours.
A note about your picture would be nice.

Great macro with excellent sharpness on details. Very well done. Too bad that you cropped the legs (but maybe you didn't get the the first place). Nice shot,thanks for sharing.

Very good Macro Paco. Excellent detail. Would liked to have seen all the legs, but nontheless, a very good shot. Well done

Si debiera criticarte con la misma severidad que lo has hecho tú, tendría que decir que la imagen incompleta del arácnido desmerece la calidad de la presentacion.
Personalmente me agrada por su agudeza y colorido, pero hubiese deseado ver la totalidad del animal... puedes publicar imágenes de hasta 800x800 pixels.

Paco, Exceptional super macro. It just goes to show what you can acheive with the right equipment! Some more info. would be a nice addition here..

Excellent shot with good color and DOF.

Very well done and thanks for posting.
