WOW thats close, great shot there.
What was you using to get this close ?

Dmax · 20 Apr 2014

Thanks for taking the time to reply Graham , I used a set of bellows + a x2 convertor on top of that I have a set of macro tubes and on the end of that lot a Nikon 50mm prime .

Impressive, come on tell the truth.

The spider was 6 foot wide.

Excellent and my sort of shot.

Wow this is fantastic! Great detail and contrast. I'm guessing this isn't a stack (although it could easily be) You have got great DoF for that magnification. Great angle too, he's looking right at me with at least 4 of his eyes

thanks guys , no its not a stack as he would not stay still for too long so I used some LED lights and the camera set at F8 with a ISO of 1000
