[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Sorry, but I couldn't find the identification of this spider in english.
One thing that I can say, that this is a very big spider and very impressive, the colours are beautifull, this is the female, the male is much much smaller and not beautiful as the female.
I hope you will like it.

It's a nice and sharp close-up. Focus is good, DOF is great. Lithting and exposure excellent. The only critique I would do, is that we don't see its head. Keep in mind that animals are like humans, they make better photos when we see their eyes, and spider have 8.
That Sigma lens seems unbeleivable, I need one ;o)

Hi Elroyie,

Sorry, it's been awhile, slowly catching up with all.
This is a beauty, colors, contrasts, focus, composition. Excellent work my friend.

This is very good. Great work on the spider and the interesting POV. Subjects stands out nicely from the BG. Maybe a smaller F-stop to get that leg in the DOF? Handheld?

Please read my post in the forum. I would appreciate you comments.

Great composition and detail. Great DOF and OOF background, well done.

Excellent capture! The soft plain background really brings your arachnid out showing great details. Really nice Elroyie. :)
