Nice, especially for me #4. Did you crop much to get that much DoF coverage in #4? It looks a lot for the large size of the subject in the frame.

Nick, I had to crop - but because I didn't want to disturb her, nor break her web, I couldn't move the leaf which her strands were attached to at the bottom of the lens so I had to shoot with the leaf right in the way - and it took all the flash!

I have been watching one for a few days and she has grown at least half as much in size. Well done with another great set Paul.
