DIFFUSER FILTER : This filter reduces contrast and as such can be used for taking picture with variable soft effects. As the filters soften the skin-texture, the portraits of ladies can be made very charming. Effects strongest with 50-100 mm or bigger focal length lenses at larger apertures.

I spent well over an hour with this guy. Found him on my deck, sticking out like a sore thumb. The biggest jumping spider I've found to date. I'm not sure of the species, I usually only see various Salticus Scenicus in my backyard, this guy was about three-times the size of them though. Haha!

 

I also took a whole lot of natural light photos, as opposed to using my home-made diffuser's. But using natural light in macro means less depth-of-field, which in turn meant this guy was hell-a-hard to focus on, especially getting his eyes.

Feels a bit like cheating really but all I did was use the Diffuse Glow filter in CS5, adjusting the settings. Interesting how the filter seems to have more impact on the left hand flower rather than on the right one
