Mikey, I like this version a bit more than the original posted version. The spider is certainly a wickedly intense color! -Michael

OK, here it is at it came from the camera; less blue. My camera/PS Levels seem always to add blue to the pix I take (?). Anyway, this is the actual color that he appeared thru the viewfinder. -mikey

Michael - Thanks. Out of the camera he was more of a pinkish-orange. When I hit 'Auto Levels', this is what happened. "Hummm, interesting", I said to myself, and left it ":^). In my post to the forum thread I said he was less that 1/4", but he is closer to 1/10". The grapefruit tree was swaying in the breeze; I must have taken 30 pix to get 5 sharp ones, of them this was the best. -mikey

Is the spider actually that color? I've never seen anything quite like it, very cool macro. -Michael
