"Cooooome cloooooser and look at my nice teeth ...
No caries, everything white because of my good toothpaste ..."

And don't she also have a nice make-up, yellow, very modern for spiders in these days ;-)

So - what do we see here in this scary size on the screen ...
This is a crab spider (Misumena vatia) female.
This female spider can grow up to 10 mm without legs - and this one had this size.
Their husband is much more tiny, only about 5 mm maximum.
She wasn't very amused to see me so close in front of her - and she already was angry because it was raining and you can see a little drop on her head and at her leg. So I made some shots, said thanks to her and let her alone again.

Thanks for looking ...

Hallo Sabine !
Oh, dieses Bild hätte ich vielleicht am besten nicht geöffnet am Abend, bevor ich schalfen gehe ! :-) Könnte mir Alpträume geben ! Aber das Bild is toll, mit wunderbare Details, jeds kleine Härchen is scharf und klar. Ich mag auch die schönen natürlichen Farben, the Komposition, der POV, une mir gefällt, dass die Spinne dir direkt in die Augen schaut. Vielen Dank !
Valerie.

Hallo Sabine
Für Jemand der nicht gerne Spinnen hat, warren sie aber mutig so nahe an diese heranzugehen, das Bild ist wundershön mit zarten Farben und vielen details
Ich finde seine ganz kleine Augen fast niedlich

Hi Sabine,
Catchy title there. You really know how to reel em' in :)
However, you might have a hard sell to the general market.
Most people are Not spider friendly - You know, it leaves a bad taste in their mouths ;-}}
Seriously, this is a superb image, I love everything about it..
Right down to those pearly whites :)

Hallo Sabine,

This is an impressive macro! The DOF you have chosen is excelently adapted to the subject. All details in the photo are rasor sharp. You have used very well the light rendering such fine saturated colors. Despite the use of flash everything looks absolutely natural.

Congratulations,

Hi Sabine,
Absolutley fantastic a macro...it could be one for the toothpaste ad or even for the whitener for clothes.."pristine white" indeed as they call it... yes, the eyes betrays a bit of distraction due to your presence...perfect exposure, sharpness and PoV.the green and yellow as well as the lovely light lilac on sides and blurred BG in the lower portion of the frame gives the white a fine contrast.The water droplets make it more dynamic.Quite a well seen capture, very much your style.

Would love to add this to my "unforgettable theme"
TFS & Cheers

Hi Sabine.
As you know, I love this species a lot because it gave some nice shots. I see it was excellent and cooperative model for you too. Stunning macro picture and amazing portrait of the cute spider. POV and eye-contact are unique. Sharpness and details are fantastic. Bravo. Excellent, simply outstanding work.

hello Sabine,
Farblich sehr schönes Bild und das Thema: hinreissend. Ist sie doch so hübsch, diese Dame! Allerdings weiss ich von ihnen, dass sie gar nicht zart sind mit den Schmetterlingen!
Sehr gelungenes Bild.
herzliche Grüsse

hello wishnu
GREAT macro picture
i like the sharpness
greeting lou

Hi Sabine,
What an awesome photo. I've seen photos of this spider before, but never one that confronts you with the beauty of its eyes and teeth. Its an all out perfect photo, with tons of sharp details, lovely colored flowers, a bit of water and a refreshing white BG.
I'm so glad that you are back on TN and TL.
TFS,

Wowww... amazingly detailed close-up capture of the mouth-parts of a crab spider Sabine. Wonderful and funny title:) too.

Hello Sabine,
A wonderful close macro of a white Crab Spider taken from a fine frontal POV with excellent sharpness to show her four eyes (with good eye contact!), her splendid white jaws and palps, as well as her continuous yellow eyebrow.
Great shot with a great title and its quite 'all white' with me!
Thanks and best wishes,
Ivan

Hi Sabine.

This is such a super close image exposing the details of this spider. I like the rows of tiny eyes with the hairy legs captured in such fine details. Well written note and TFS.

Hi Sabine,
Outstanding macro image with such amazing sharpness and clarity. Looks really larger than life and scary too. Great POV and DOF and you have handled the flash lighting very skillfully. I must say this is the best I have seen.
TFS.

Hi Sabine,
this must be one of the best ceab spider shots up to now here on TN.
This tine the flash works very well because of all the whites, the exposure are almost perfect.
Sharpness and details are at the TOP, all details in the face are well seen. It's also well composed with a fine pose and POV.
Maybe this is your best shot ever. I like very much.
Very well done, my friend.

Bonjour Sabine, cette macro d'arachide est remarquable! juste ce qui est nécessaire pour le cadrage et mettre en valeur le regard du monstre blanc! Best regards, Didier.

Hi Sabine,

Amazing. Awesome. I am running out of words to express my feelings. Such a sharp shot and the colors are great. Very neat white with lovely green and yellow on the face. The flower you shot it on adds to the colors with its pink and purple.
