Your macros are one of the BEST on this site and due to the coin game here your work does not get the recognition it deserves.
Your a outstanding Photographer, artist, digital artist..Fractals.
You rank high in my book!
Outstanding Macro of a spider with excellent camera techs! Focus, white balance,lighting,details all superbulous!
Good Luck!!

Thanks so much Sandra, I really appreciate your constant support for my work:)) I don't have time for the coin game and I think to pull out of the contest game too, I've had it with CEC, but I may stay on FAR because of members like you and focus on quality ;)

Wow, this one jumps right out at you. Focus and depth of field are very nicely done. The framing by the sharply focused (with droplets) greenery on the left really adds drama to the composition. If the abdomen was a tad darker/just a bit of contrast that would be nice, but it is really not a big deal. Excellent entry for the contest. I think it will do well. Nicely done ~ Steve

Looks like a gargantuan creature from another planet!
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Fine fragile features & soft hairy textures.
Subtle filtered illumination but background is bright.
There seems to be two eyes on its back!

Impressive entry. Potential voters choice...

Best macro shot I've seen to date on this site. Your macro lens is exceptionally sharp with great DOF. Is it a 1:1?

Great detail of the fine hairs of the plant and on the spider. Camera management is superb. The composition and framing are perfect.

I like this one alot. I think you have a solid contender for the contest, good luck ... B-)) Bob

Thank you, Bob! I use 55mm nikkor micro, I think it's 2:1.
