Top notch images Michael. Spiders still give me the creeps.

Gorgeous shots, Michael! I tried commenting yesterday from my Blackberry, but it looks like it didn't take. I love these! I'm amazed at the DOF you achieved!! Well done, sir! Good form!

Jim

PS...what was the aperture on the first one?

Another nice set, Michael. The spider is a little creepy, though. In a good way.

You love the eyes. I love the irridescent colors...okay...wait...I like the eyes, too. But I LOVE the color especially the way it fools your eye and is a plain brown color until you shift slightly and then it is a shining blue or gold. Zing! Then there are the gossamer wings....we'll land this plane and save that conversation for another day. Wow!
