Hi Andy,
Excellent macro shot! Excellent detail, flash control is absolutely perfect, no traces of glare at all. Wonderful soft colours but I think what stands out is that you've made this tiny thing look like quite a fearsome beast!
Cheers,
Adrian

Magnificent macro of such a small spider, Andy.
You have got the face in perfect focus and rest of the details are also very sharp and clear.
Great job!

Hello Andy,
Superb shot! I like the POV a lot, along with shalow DOF it helps to show the head and "catching legs" well. The details are great too, every hair is well visible.
I like it a lot!

excellent macro-shot, andy! :-)
nice close-up, i really like the hairy legs
and its eyes staring right at you - what was
that with the larger prey?! *g*
funny, i thought crab spider adjusted their color
according to the background, maybe it has just
got there.
well seen & captured, thor.

Hello Andy!
Great shot indeed! Very interesting pose shows their typical hunting position. I like it's diagonal pose! Amazing lighting with the flash! Great details on the face! I like it a lot! btw, great note too, it's really interesting idea if it flies with the prey :-) Congratulations and thank you!

You know me.. like them spiders. :) It is avery difficult subject you chose. Even at f13 the DOF is still limited. It does show nice facial details though. Very well done Andy.

Hi Andy.
At this wonderful picture I love the extremely sharp "face" of this cute spider and fantastic reproduction details and colour tones of the petals. It is very delicate and exact work. I would have a temptation to increase DOF. But, possibly, charm of this work would disappears. Great skilful job. Bravo.
Alexei.
