Thanks to @T0p cat Tom for telling me how to find these beasts though not sure its quite the same as his.

Out in the woods with Venus setup and 18-55mm setup though did also have the Sigma 150-500mm and Tokina Setup too...

Think I need a second body so I don't have to change lenses,

Anyway after finding this little one I decided that I needed to get out the 18-55mm.

I think this is --- lathriopyga longiseta

Venus

All comments welcome and appreciated

Booty-ful just booty-ful :D
No 6 is a cracker imo showing the water droplets on its back (y)
With the Venus shots they are really smooth/sharp

"Excellent" set of images Bryn, I've never seen anything like that little thing before. #5 ticks all the boxes for me.(y)

Lmao..... Frans has corrected the species as Neanura Muscorum. Loved the comment on flickr some reason its not notifying me. :kiss::kiss::mooning:
 
Woo hoo! Lovely little species and great to see what the Venus can do with it. Have you tried it on extension tubes yet?

Check out AndyBadger's stream for some recent discussion on the differences between the 2 species. They do look very similar.

Thanks mate... not tried any accessories with it yet.... Tubes should be ok hopefully wont bring the focus in too close otherwise will need to change lighting again. Not tried the TC either but a bit concerned with the TC as Matt has seen some softness and wonder if that's being caused by TC (on other thread).

Do you mean Andy's flickr stream or elsewhere if elsewhere could you give me the URL
