Thanks for the comments guys!
I'm just starting out with photgraphy, so it's nice to get some positive feedback
They have all been cropped with photoshop, some of them pretty heavily! The zebra spider was only teeny, about half a cm long, so had a fair amount of background to get rid of.
I have to admit, the zebra spider is my favourite too.
Comments duly noted, so here is a slightly more close-up version of Mr Zebby

Great pics. I have yet to master macro setting (mutters under breath).  _________________ www.rickslivefood.co.uk

What camera and lens are you using? You may have said and I'm being blind but they are fantastic photos.

Thanks
Drymarchon32 - i'm using a Panasonic FZ50 plus Raynox 150 macro lens. Really easy to use, I don't quite understand how to set things up manually yet, so i'm just whacking it on auto setting! Seems to be doing the job though!
Goose - I'd love to come take some pics, looking forward to meeting your pygmy chams! Have PM'd you  _________________ Sophie
