    Don't mind at all, CF :thumbsup:

    Your spider is nice and sharp - what lens are you using and how big was that? What is that background? Is it a door or side of the house? A bit cool IMO - kind of clinical-looking (background).

    What's a Loupe for anyway?

    Thanks again, Loupey. The spider, stretched out, would cover a 50 cent piece. I was approximately three feet away using a Tamron 28-300. As for the background, the sky was quite overcast today so perhaps that might be it. The spider was between branches of a tree with more trees/shrubs behind it.

    I applaud the sharpness on these especially if you were hand holding that 300mm . That is getting tougher and tougher for me to do.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Thanks folks. I appreciate the kind comments. Old Timer, I was hand holding the 300mm but you are right, it is hard to do.
