Hi Gert

I agree the shallow DOF works very well here and really concentrates attention on the head and eyes.

I've never seen one of these spiders with her egg sack, well seen and well caught.

Wow good magnification and selective depth to your spider Gert. The softness around the edges really takes you in to this creepy world. Nice soft lighting keeps exposure in check. Best, Brat.

That is fascinating, Gert.
I have never seen this kind of thing: a spider with an egg sac, and a blue one at that. Wow!
I like the effect of your shallow DOF.
The sharp details are amazing.

Hi Gert,
I think the shallow DOF can work for an all-together pleasing effect, as seen here.
Very well composed and a good POV. Great detail within your DOF and nice color/light. Excellent PP.
Very well done.

Hi Gert.
Your photo model is really amazing at any DOF. Very nice accent of the spider head and upper part of body. Details and colour reproduction is great. I have never seen this species. Best wishes and TFS.

Estupendo documento, con una claridad impresionante de este curioso arácnido. Casi nunca he fotografiado arañas , pero conforme lo hago descubro su dificultad, bien por sus formas, volúmenes, telas ... osea, un reto para el fotógrafo. Saludos Gert.
