Michael Shpuntov

This is a visitor on my balcony. My son saw it and called me to take a shot. It's about 1/2" in full size. The background is real, not PS tricks. The feeling that it's free-flying is because the net is invisible, due to the angle and flash.

Panasonic DMC-FZ10 ,with Nikon 5T
1/200s f/8.0 at 72.0mm iso100 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Nice picture Michael. I haven't tried insects yet, I'm sure it's challenging.

Very nicely done floating spider, Michael. I like seeing the detail on the screen, but, eeew, not in real life!

Amazing just how much detail there is. We let these guys stay around the house as long as they eat other bugs and don't party too loud. I'll show them all this pic. 8-)

Worthy of being in a spider book. Excellent. Bea.

Micheal I do have to agree with the others, spiders are so gross LOL, but an excellent shot. Pauline
