I am always trying to find different creatures. I tend to find the same ones, now that I have done macro for several years. But, the other day I found a spider that I haven't seen before. spider5.jpgspier7.jpg

I suppose all of us, as kids, amused ourselves by pulling legs off spiders, especially Daddylonglegs. However, since I've taken up macro-photography, I'm amazed at the number of spiders and insects I find that are missing legs.

Six-legged Araneus diadematus - European Garden Spider

Edit: As usual, this was taken with an 18-55mm kit lens but mounted on a 36mm macro ring.

See buddy! I like your spider shot just as much on this thread! Lol Though I'm a little green with great shot envy! Lol :frog:

Thanks Bill. We're all 100% behind you in this time of trouble. Just hope that things improve quickly so you can give yourself over to your other passion. ie, photography.

What do you do when you're up at 5:00 for no good reason, waiting for the coffee to finish? Might as well go see what's hanging around the lamp post

Here is the tiniest spider I've ever tried to photograph! Two versions of two photos of the same critter!:D I had to shoot this guy hand held since my tripod wouldn't go low enough! :)
