Hi Howard,

Great close shot of the Spider enjoying her meal.
Nicely composed with a good POV and pose and lovely vivid colours.
Very good details its amazing what things the macro can show that your eyes miss, I've finally got one so will start practising once the bugs start flying.

Hi Howard, it's incredible the detail you pull into some of your shots. Your macros are very impressive. This one is no exception, to that rule. Amazing how you can even see the vascular system on this spider. Excellent composition and light even at these close quarters. Very nicely done.

Thanks, John

Hi friend Howard,
Superb macro shot of a spider's front side! All are wonderfull.
I found and photographed a flattened (also long-legged) and strange spider species in Karpas penninsula two days ago but I did not know its ID. I can upload it next days!

Hi Howard.
I am very interested about comfort of use MIII for macro shooting (especially about crop-factor). You managed to reach a great DOF however only with long exposure time and high ISO speed. Very impressive framing and composition of the shot. Details are great as well as fine colours. I wish your many spring macro shots taken with and without tubes, TC and proper reports. My best wishes and TFS.
Alexei.

Hi Howard

Obviously there's not much love lost between you and the IRS. But then again, I've never seen anybody ever saying anything good about the IRS. So, who cares and I am sure no one will shed a tear because of that, although I suppose they are only doing what they are supposed to do.

Anyway, mamma seems to be enjoying her moth and couldn't care much about you. Even though this is one of your earlier shots with the MkIII & Kenko combination it still came out tops and you just underlined your amazing skill and ability with camera in hand (ok, on tripod). Amazing details, superb DOF, spectacular colour rendition, excellent out of camera crop & composition, and superb exposure control with the fill-in flash optimally utilised.

Very well done MF and TFS.
Regards
Loot

A pleasure to the view, MF.
