100% crop. I wasn't happy with the whole shot so cropped it. Very new to macro so still trying. This was hand held as I didn't have time to set up the tripod before the beastie ran away! Feel free to C&C please!

Thanks! I only discovered it because it crawled under my 5 stone dog, who leapt in the air like a scalded cat!!! So the photos were taken, handheld whilst trying to keep a mad dog at bay. Here are three more, full body and two head shots.
