Hello Dietrich!

I like very much your photos from backyard. Today real drama in microworld. I'm surprised that this caterpillar isn't toxic. Anyway great details, moment and composition.

Happy New Year Dietrich!
A fine image to remind us about one of the basics of nature, the food chain. An excellent macro of both the Brown Crab Spider and its prey, a half-grown A. gamma caterpillar. The technical qualities are superb and the POV and composition faultless.
Thank you and best wishes,
Ivan

Hi Dietrich.
Happy New year and all the best in 2009.
Simply wonderful scene. Plant, spider, its prey and water drop create an amazing composition. DOF is fantastic. All scene is in focus. Lights and colours are great as usual. Bravo and kind regards.

Lieber Dieter,
Ein sehr interessantes Bild zum Jahresanfang! Diese Braune Krabbenspinne ist mir öfters im BOGA begegnet, fast immer mit einer Beute (allerdings kleiner als auf deinem Bild). Sehr gut ausgeleuchtete und konstruierte Darstellung. Gefällt mir sehr,hübsch die poetische Note des Wassertropfens!
As guets niws Jahr
Herzliche Grüsse
Anne

Primero, gracias por tus buenos deseos para este año; yo te deseo lo mismo. Si vas al País Vasco creo que disfrutará, principalmente porque lo habitan personas amables y abiertas, su cultura y como no, su paisaje, que creo saben cuidar a pesar de la fuerte industrialización.
En cuanto a tu toma, un excelente trabajo lleno de interesantes detalles.
Un abrazo Dietrich: Josep Ignasi.

Hello Dietrich,
Very cool - Love this image.
The crystal ball rt has predicted no escape for the cat..
And nature moves inexorably forward.
Right place, right time for the photographer anyway ;-}
Thank you for this wonder!
