I took a bunch of shots of this spider and this was my favorite. I used a ring flash and it's shape was reflected in each eye. I didn't like the mechanical look, so I recreated the catch light as a small set of circles using Photoshop. www.worldprimatesafaris.com/ planned an amazing trip for us!

This spider crawled out of the sink plughole after my son finished his ablutions. Don't think it was very pleased. About 2.5 inch leg span
I found this spider in the garden shed. The picture was created from a focus stack of 82 photos taken with a Schneider f2.8 40mm APO lens reverse mounted and using a flash.
Yellow Garden Spider. So many of these creepy spiders around the small pond next to Gallery Stratford. It was breezy as well, so the webs were always moving. Difficult to get extra close to them.
Hello my friends! Yes, I'm still alive :) Here are my macro photos taken with smartphone Lumia 920 from this weekend.

Just for Demo. Small Spider climbing in Web. This is the limit for my simple optical ArnoSync detection device. Pointing to such a small insect is very difficult to ... Uncropped image.
Possibly Tegenaria Gigantea. This was hiding on a roof tile in my garage. It is my first attempt (not great I know) of photo stacking. Have to say it was the best model I've ever shot. Never moved once the photography started. That was probably because it was guarding its supper which was silk wrapped behind it.

Went on a photoshop course this week and was blown away by the complexity of the program.
This is the product of one of my first photoshop projects, combining a web I took in the lake districts with a little garden spider I photographed recently.
He ended up looking quite big and ominous...
I hate spiders so I still can't believe I took this. Even looking at it grosses me out, but I can try quashing my arachnophobia enough to appreciate the fine markings on this hairy beasty and the incredible web artwork.
A female Rufous net-casting spider (Deinopis subrufa) seen in my back yard one night. The two large eyes provide outstanding night vision.
White spider with a cool web design. This guy is less then 0.5 an inch long. Had to crop to show more detail. Shot Hand-held.

Here's a small spider working under a daisy. When you find a daisy with petals folded or bunched together, often there's a small spider responsible. This spider was busy making a kind of "nest" or hiding place by attaching silk to some petals and gradually dragging the ends around to form a small enclosure. Taken while positioned on my back, shooting up. A slight breeze was moving the blossom around, making focusing and composing a bit difficult, so I jammed a thin stick into the ground beside the stem, then pushed it against the stem to provide some stability. A yard of thin black cloth clipped to a very lightweight and spindly tripod (a flea market find made in the 1930's) provided the black background, far less distracting than what was really there... a tremendously bright area of sunlit clouds.
