Jumping Spider

[uppy]

Saw this little fella running across my window & luckily had my camera all setup to catch some shots of him,

Anyway i thought this was the best of the lot, so thought id share & see what people thought. Took some advice from a previous thread i posted & am trying different diffusing techniques.

Currently, trying a tiny food container with velco straps to attach to a flashgun and the box filled with tissue

I also got one where it suddenly moved & blurred my shot, and it looks like it has a smily face, i'll upload it to show later.

nice shot, hate the millions of eyes though!

I know you wanted critique, but I can't fault this. The background is great and compliments the subject well, the eyes are pin sharp and the dof is spot on..........great work!

Thanks guys

This is the shot where he moved - focus changed & it caused his face to blur ..made it look liked hes smiling haha

Couple of good detailed and sharp shots but it looks underexposed - what colour was the surface it was standing on ?
