most definitely creepy, and most definitely a great shot (I like how his eyes are the same colour as the pollen).

You wouldn't like flash either if you had 8 eyes.

Nice Macro, it would have been a 10/10 it the spider was slightly more in focus rather then the closest point of the flower

There's something about the lighting.. did you use a flash? Colors seem very flat to me somehow.. and the DOF is a bit distracting. Do like the captured spider though..
Hmm..

CamaraPhotography (49 months ago | reply)
Cool. I wish the focus was a bit sharper on just the spider. But it's a really good shot.
