Not much more to add from all that great advice. But get your self a flash and a diffuser for it. Or better still make yourself a macro flash like i did.

Oh and make sure you know the names of the bugs and spiders you post or else Dan will yell at you

Ah, okay. Just thought as it had happened before, it might have happened again, and it would be worth rectifying before it became a regular problem.

Lighting things close up is always a problem.

By the way, did just one side of your flash rig fire on that first spider pic?

Dan

They both fired its just the spider was sitting on the part of the leaf which had curled up 90degrees, like a ledge and the leaf behind was acting as a wall behind it. I couldn't get in close enough to get each head on either side of the spider and pointed the flash straight on.
Hence the shadow

Eriophora transmarina? The colouring can apparantly be quite varied, but it looks right for the top spider at least.

Must I do all your homework for you Clarky?

Nice detail on that first spider shot, andI like the inquisitve look of the bug.

Dan

Thanks Dan

I'm just lazy and i know i can rely on you. But now you are onto my scam i will try harder in future

Thanks guys for your thoughts.

Steve: Thats all it takes is practise and experimentation. If i can do it anyone can

I have discovered that these redeyed bugs are very inquistitive or like getting there picture taken. They seem to come from everywhere to see what i'm doing whenever i have my camera handy.

Nice shot, he has big grin on his face. Is that a tiny bug hanging out of his mouth
