Arachtober continues!
This is the same crab spider I've posted before but he or she was very cooperative and photogenic and I may yet post a few more.
I like to think that this pose is very dynamic, perhaps a martial arts stance.
If you are only going to have a few dozen hairs on top of your head, you'd better make them count, right?
A tiny spider I saw while I was walking in the park today. People were staring as I crouched way down to get the shot. I guess they've never done that before! LOL
Oops, seems this little spider has caught the big one but it isn't a vegetarian! Or a weight lifter. In the aloe this morning!

The edition number 31 of the e-zine Milkbox gave to me the opportunity to show my work in a space called showroom, and the true is that I found with a big surprise in the same edition, because there is an interview made to Marialy Rivas, one of the best new film directors of Chile, if you know some spanish read that interview.
I want to give my gratefulness to Carlos Castro by to have trusted my work and give me the opportunity to show it in Milkbox and to Jose Luis Noli by be part of the production shown in the milkbox, apart of be my model model in the pictures.
This montage was made with one of the many incredible macro shots of Farhan Bokhari

En la edición número 31 de la revista Milkbox me dieron la oportunidad de mostrar mi trabajo en un espacio llamado showroom y la verdad es que me encontré con un gran sorpresa en la misma edición, ya que también hay una entrevista a Marialy Rivas, una de las grandes cineastas de nuestro país, lean esa entrevista que está buenísima!
Quiero agradecer a Carlos Castro por haber confiado en mi trabajo y darme la oportunidad de mostrarlo en Milkbox y a Jose Luis Noli por ser parte de la producción exhibida en la Milkbox aparte de ser el modelo de las fotos.
Este montaje fue hecho con uno de los tantos increibles macros de Farhan Bokhari
“No tengo talentos especiales, pero sí soy profundamente curioso" (Albert Einstein).
Pues eso me pasa a mi, tengo curiosidad por ver cada cosa que encuentro y desconozco, eso me ha llevado a ver una especie de de bola pagada a una de mis plantas y abrirla para ver lo que era....
It's nice to see these little guys start to appear again. It signals a much needed change of season.
A re-release of an old photo I noticed had some noice. This is a small photo, taken with an old 5MP consumer digital and cropped about 40 percent.
This little spider really is teeny, maybe not as big as my pinky fingernail. It has built a solid home base here between two dried flower stalks in one of my sea lavender plants. The stalks are maybe 7-8 inches (20 cm?) apart, and she (maybe) has it well anchored so it barely shimmers in a breeze. Day 2 of my bugging her with a light squirt of a water spray bottle. Pisses her off I'm sure, sends her into defend/attack mode. I just spent a few minutes with her then let her be. She snuggles up under that housing she's built and guards her sea lavender domain I guess. The plant is covered really well in webs. I'd love to see her with a fresh catch. The yellow background, by the way, is the flowering lantana.
A couple of techie notes: I did use a ring light here - a tradeoff - throws more light into her abode, but did seem to wash out the strands of webbing. The other is I used Denoise with mixed feelings; it had some trouble around the spider footsies and web strands. Be sure and check her LARGE.
Arbanitis sp.
Family: Idiopidae
Order: Araneae
Class: Arachnida
This was found in my friends garden near Batemans Bay on the NSW south coast. My thanks to Dave Kemp for his help!
Thanks also to Hasani Douglas for correcting my earlier incorrect ID!
She came on my hand and my camera was just on table... then she let me capture :)
She was really small ....
Working late in the dark (of course) and almost dusted this little spider off my monitor. It's about 1mm from leg-tip to leg-tip! Took quite a few shots to grab, because had to focus on the top of its body, or you couldn't make it out (even at f/32)...a distance difference of - 0.2mm? Pretty hard! The red, green and blue dots are pixels, and that's the Move tool in Photoshop on the bottom right. You gotta view the large image to see it. Believe it or not, this is a white background on the screen.
Most arachnid species are nocturnal and their simple eyes detect only variations in light. Like most spiders, this one also have eight eyes. The two huge eyes enable it to see prey in near-total darkness.
I used strong flash from below to shoot this one, maybe too strong .... seems like shooting in the day time.
