Nice! Perfectly detailed, and really well lit. You can even see a few semi-translucent threads of a web under his feet. Kinda like a trip wire. +faves

Please, even if you don't visit my gallery, check out my "Faves".I've left them intact since day "1", and would like it if every image there got the attention they deserved.

Doesn't get much better than this, and I have to agree and echo third eye's opinion and assessment.

Any better, and I'd be running for the hills!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

Ew ew ew icky bugs!!!! AMAZING macro capture though, its perfectly focused and the clarity is phenomenal. Just voted it 10/10 in the voting booth although there are some shots on here at the moment that deserve more and this is certainly one of them....!!!!!!

Absolutely gorgeous! Unquestionably the best dof I've seen in an insect macro on Caedes. All good, would get 10/10 from me if I got it in the vb. Saaaweeeet.

Must not be one of the chosen with this score?...fantastic shot, the "c" index is definately flawed! Beautiful capture and presentation.
