Lovely and a sure sharp image, was it the lens or the camera :

Thanks Jack, with regard to sharpness, pure luck at 1/20 sec because the wind was blowing this little fella about so much.

But I guess it is a combination of both, they work nicely together

A wicked capture, well taken and produced. Nice, sharp yet soft probably the window glass.

Enjoy life

Thanks for your comment Cedric.
Yes you are probably right, the the camera and lens had to contend with a double glazed unit, much more of challenge than a filter

Just a query, did you switch to ISO800 beacuse of the wind to help with a faster shutter speed and did you spot meter on the spider body or head?

Hi Simon, yes shutter speed was the key, I was trying to balance that with ISO and aperture because the light wasn't great
