Long time no macro for me. We have had a few freezes here, so there seems to be less subjects for macro. . but it was good to get out.
These seemed really dark to me, and the crab spider is a slight crop

I am a massive arachnophobe, but even i can see the beauty in those.

Really great photos, the second especially, so clear!

Making me itchy though so i will stop lol.

I understand your phobia . . i still cringe at the sight of spiders at times. . . especially the larger ones. .lol

i used to work in the woods surveying land, where i would be covered by spiders, ticks and chiggers . .that makes you itchy! ;)
