Came across a little Orb-Weaver... · 08:35 PM

...so I went and got the DFA 2.8 100 mm macro out.

Comments are always welcome and appreciated.

These are scary enough with seeing the larger images Heinrich. Nice captures of these scary arachnids. Great details in the last one.

Eerie detail captured Heinrich.
First one gives me shivers down my spine with all those spiky hairs...

Nice shooting, Heinrich!
Looking at the first shot, I can see why it is called Cat-faced Orbweaver. ( I knew the name, but had never seen the face before; it's on the body of the spider). Thanks for sharing.

I thought it looked like it was smiling at me but knew nothing of the Cat-faced Orbweaver. Very educational and facinating shots. Thanks for posting Heeinrich!

Wow that looks like a predator for sure - excellent detail.

**jheu02** · 09-23-2009, 07:27 AM

Great lighting and clarity. Nice to have a dedicated macro lens.

scott-devon · 09-23-2009, 07:52 AM

Excellent shots, that second one is amazing.

Looks like you threw the flash at him. He was probably thinking if he was small as me, I can take him. Nice work, Heinrich.

Thank you, I had never heard the name `cat-faced`before, makes sense though.

Thanks Dave, they are predators all right but fortunately for us they hunt the right prey.

Take care,
