Araneus diadematus
Found the exact same Garden spider from the last time i went out to get some shots, so i decided to get some better pictures with my newer setup - basically a new flash diffuser i made from some plastic tubs.
Works great though !
Seemed unbothered with my camera 1cm away from its face and din't move - giving me the chance to get a close - up and in focus picture of its small eyes.
Taken with a 50mm Prime lens reversed on a full set of macro extension tubes.
F11.
Flash - AFD360 at 1/4 power with a home made flash diffuser - tissue and clear plastic.
