| | | Spider Macros This Garden Spider (Araneus diadematus) was very obliging by spinning its web on our white outhouse door.
It was even more obliging as it soon caught a fly and proceeded to wrap it up before having a good old feast. Ummmm - yummy!! LOL

| | | Re: Spider Macros Any constructive criticism is welcome.
You can say you don't like the subject matter or point out areas where you think there are technical/artistic faults - I don't mind!
It was a little difficult at the time as the sun kept going in and out.
I was on aperture priority and managed to get up to and around f16/f18 with the help of the onboard flash with a diffuser over it - still haven't got another lighting system  I had to madly switch between flash compensation as the light changed.
No tripod - I sat on a kitchen chair the wrong way round and used a bean bag. It was bloomin' painful I can tell you!! LOL
Look forward to any comments - unless this is in the wrong place and that's why no one has commented. Come to think of it.. it does seem to be mainly questions about starting photography - perhaps I'm in the wrong area???.
Advise please! I can't seem to get my head round this forum - sorry!!!
