A shot of a spider that went totally wrong so I had a play and I kinda love it now. What do you think? Be as harsh or kind as you like.

Good picture Alby - I think that the extremely limited DOF, sharp focus and fairly strong contrast give it an ALIEN quality.

Brian V.

The original was poor but thought I would have a play, I upped the saturation gave it a big S in curves, added some vignetting some USM and ran it through neat image. I should have posted the original really. I thought it was a binner :-)

Well I'm the last guy to talk about Spiders! :oops:
They absolutely creep me out....bigger they are....faster I can run!! :lol:
It's fun when you can rescue a goof and it don't happen often.
Your shot definately looks like something from Sci-Fi.
You did a great job saving something that woulda wound up in the recycle bin!!
