Yellow and red spider

[moyer777]

I found this pretty amazing spider on my rose bush tonight.  My mom held the blossom while I snapped the pictures.  What do you think?















and here is a close up of his face....

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!  (I don't like spiders!)

Rick, are you using diopters or a macro lens?

[moyer777]

a macro lens.  But it's borrowed.  I'm bidding right now on the 3 ring system by Kenko.  It's about a quarter of the cost and it's supposed to work the same way.

You are like ob-SESSED.  How many times did you see The Incredible Shrinking Man or The Fly?

[moyer777]

some would say obesessed, others would say curious and creative.  :)  I just love taking pictures of the world we don't usually see.  :)

Even though I hate spiders, it's still a cool looking spider.

Do you know if you get the same depth of field?  I've only seen them I've never had a chance to use them.

[moyer777]

well, we will see.  As soon as I save up enough, I'll order them.

Icky!! Squish it!! I hope you checked to be sure it wasn't poisonous before you had your mom hold it!!
