Finally found a spider that wouldnt run away.

While out toady and digging through the leaves looking for springtails i found this very cute little crab spider. I have alot more shots to process as i made the most of him. Will post them later. Enjoy.

Slight adjustment to curves in CS3, no sharpening applied.

not my idea of cute! what is it standing on? its amazing to see the hairs so well on a tiny creature such as this. That really is one crazy lens. I just love to look at your threads!

Your shots just keep getting better

These guys are not IMO quite as cute as jumping spiders with their huge eyes, but a close second. Pleased to see you got over your "spider block".
