Wow- this one is exciting...and scary!!;) I like the action and composition- it really tells a story. What next? :)

[Alfred Forns]

Very nice Sid !!! The thing that could have helped you the most here is soft light

For macro I find using diffuser a must and like it more that flash !!!

Hi Sid,
I like the composition, but you have two hot spots; one on the spider, and the other one on it's food...:eek: Were you using flash?

[Sid Overbey]

I appreciate the comments. This guy is hard to get at to photograph and I the sun was coming up which made it difficult. I tried shooting him several ways, with and without fill flash. I will post a third shot tomorrow.
