Green spider on prickly pear
Lens: D FA* 50mm F1.4 Camera: Pentax K70 Photo Location: Nuevo Leon, México ISO: 125 Shutter Speed: 1/500s Aperture: F4

Taken last weekend in the Chipinque mountains.
Loved the contrast between the green and purple.
Not intended to be a macro, but this lens allows to crop the image quite a bit so the result was pretty satisfactory to me.
Beautiful spider, beautiful lens, what else can I say?...

Your non-intentional macro turned out to be a very nice macro. The focus is very good. I agree with you that the green and purple contrast makes this spider show well. Good shot.

Very good detail and the colour contrast is great.

The spider is very impressive!
So is the fruit!
And the lens is very impressive too!
Good shooting!

Very impressive. Not having a macro lens, and being forced to take the shot from a greater distance and then cropping may have helped in the depth of field in this shot???
