    Another Green Ant Cosmophasis. I don't think I have seen this particular spider before with the black spot on his bum.

    Ironwoods Random Offerings 2017

    I have been experimenting with the Sigma 50-150, seeing what I can use it for. Its not a focal range that I usually use much, I normally use shorter or longer, well except for my 55 macro which does fall in the lower end of the range.

    Ironwoods Random Offerings 2017

This one sat high up on a branch early this morning. I have had to crop, so its not the best image, but its the best one I have to date of this...

    As promised, a closer look at the big spider. I managed to find a mint condition copy of the Sigma 50-150 f2.8 OS, received it today and this was its test run, first pics. I took a milk crate with me to get a bit closer, these are about 5-6 feet away from the spider. Looking at it today, its...
