I had the feeling I was being watched all the time I was viewing those incredible pictures.

Incredible images - a testimony to the the skill of the photographer and the quality of the kit. Thanks for sharing that with us!

I'm inspired and may start hunting our local jumping spiders with a suitable lens too (I'm after some extensions tubes) - BTW, we call these spiders Portia in our house for some long forgotten reason....

He took three pictures with slightly different focus and merged them together to increase the depth of field.

Thank You, Flyer.
I found something that may help others that did not know what stacking was about

Man, that is impressive.

That work puts to rest all the discussions about which camera gear is the "best". I cannot imagine how one could do better.

Very impressive shots!!!

I said it in another thread and I'll say it again...

Shots like these make me wonder if I will ever be a "real" "Pentax Photographer." In spite of shooting Pentax for over 30 years I still can't take photos of tiny creepy crawlies (a virtually mandatory Pentax niche). I feel inadequate next to all of the bug lovers (and I mean "bug lovers" in a good way)! LOL
