The spider's astonishing. I like the second purple flower shot as well.
Best wishes,
Andrew

Nice set, number 4 is my favourite (DOF addict here ).
Good detail on the spider, interesting little critter. The flash reflections are a bit of a bugger though, and I think it would stand out more on a different background. Perhaps pick it up and move it to a leaf for your next session

Hi Matt
I think the flower is a Geranium Macrorrhizum - if it has red stems and radiates from a central base then it is - fast growing,invasive and great ground cover .
Oh - beautiful shots too - spider and snail are brill !!

First up, a tiny purple flower; not sure what it is:
Then a couple from the lid of the compost bin(!)... big snail little snail - like a truck towing a caravan...
...and a tiny spider in his tiny lair...
Finally, two more shots of the purple flower - the first one is 'normal', although with a big aperture, and in the second I (unintentionally) blew the whole image away with flash. Having said that, I don't really mind it - would be interested to know what anyone else thinks...??
I hope you like them... any C&C welcomed as usual
