Very nice sharp pics.-

Maybe you can add some contrast to the first 3 images.

Thanks, Narmer.
I did notice after posting them that some looked a bit washed out. Did some adjusting to gamma/contrast. I think this one looks a little better now.

Excellent captures.

This is unfair, such a big spider and a little ant.

But what a concidence, I just looked at these pictures:

The autors states, that the spider won the fight!!!

Quite interesting, this one is captured with a Sanyo xacti S5, no addon lenses - just using the short distance macro!

No raynox no stacking ;-) just shooting.

Thanks, seemolf.

Those pics from the xacti are impressive, especially considering no add-on lens. Looks like a pretty large ant. That must be one tough little spider!

Looks like the Sanyo xacti has an impresive macro focus (less than 1 inch). Wow !!
But that close, the spider will probably want to take a bite at you :-)
