The disparity between foreground and background makes for uncomfortable viewing. I suggest this works better with the top third cropped off.

Thanks for sharing.

Great spider capture Brian, I too think the upper third of the image could be cropped out for a better image.

Nice detail on the spider Brian. Love the way she seems to be looking up at the curly leaf. I'm with the others on cropping out the oof stuff above the curly leaf.

Nice shot....focus stacking? I'm going to have to try that over the holidays. Do you manually adjust the focus for that or do you set the camera to do it?

Thanks Bentron,
No way to set the camera- I normally dial up the magnification and then focus by moving the camera- so it's a case of just moving the camera V slightly and shooting again.
