Ronny,
That is some seriously well done macro work. Every hair as sharp as a tack. Beautiful!

Thanks Dennis, I've got 3 kiron made lenses a 70-210 f3.5 (full manual), a 28-80 f4 , and the 105mm. and although I got some af zoom's in the same range I don't want to loose these 3.

Thanks Tom, it's a solution to the dof problem, but only if the insects don't move to much. One of the things I still have to try is combine shots that result in an image with more than 1 focal plain.

Awsome photo Ronny, and thanks for the explanation. Another new concept to play with.

I don't know much about spiders, so I'm counting on your expertise as I don't intend to become a student of this species. The face of that spider appears to have 4 eyes; is that what we're looking at?

thanks Jim,

yes you're looking at it's 4 front eyes, the other 4 are placed 2 on top and two on the side of its head pointing slightly backwards.

The number and placement of eyes varies according to the type of spider. Most spiders have 8 eyes - 4 large ones and 4 small ones. You are seeing the large ones.

Edir: The new photo just posted shows the other four.

@bilybianca

Kjell, offcourse there will be pictures. The trip will be to the center of France (Auvergne - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auvergne_(région) )
Just a part of France where I haven't been.

Patty, I told the small spider and he's very sad you feel that you feel that way, after doing his best to keep smiling during the photo session.
