Does your camera show you with "blinkies" where the overexposed parts are? Does it have a histogram? Can you enlarge the image when you play it back on the camera to check sharpness? That is the coolest part about digital photography... you can catch some of those blunders while still in the field and retake the shots. Of course there will still be some surprises.

The angle of the composition is wonderful in this shot. The OE is unfortunate.

Qampu is looking quite chubby these days. She needs to watch that waistline! :)
I did the same thing on my spider photo where Charlotte shed her shell....there was a bit of background over-exposed. I want to build something I can put behind the web..maybe a black cardboard thingie to avoid this. But this is a great shot! Love the detail here. Still I think Charlotte is bigger than Qampu.

Crisp, clear, colorful and VERY unusual patterns on the spider. I normally don;t like spiders but this one looks more charming than scary! Great picture and I really appreciate your sharing it with me and the rest!

I like this effect with the sun behind and almost mirroring the spider's shape. It makes the entire web stand out for us too. Well done.

TFS!

Methinks the bright light behind her caused a bit of a problem in you other images. Here it gives us a clean pallet against which she stands out well

bonjour jim
le blanc du ciel gene un peu car il est juste derriere l'araignée
mais la profondeur de champ est bonne et j'aime beaucoup les dessin de l'abdomen.
