Great shots. Nature is indeed cruel at times. Very well done.

Thanks Micheal! Yeah it seems so. Sometimes it seems like everything is eating everything else to survive. :shock: Bob

Thanks Micheal! Thanks Ari! I am really enjoying my macro set up this summer - a Sigma 70mm and Kenko 2x TC. Bob

Thanks again Micheal! The crazy thing about it is that it cost less than 600$ The Sigma cost 449$ and the Kenko 142$. The Kenko stays on all the time and makes it a 140mm capable of 2:1 macro. The AF is slooowww but I manually focus macro anyways.
BTW- The Sigma is on sale for 399$ at B+H - I think its going to be discontinued.

Great shots! I have some good close ups of a spider, but so far have not been able to capture one eating. That's really cool!

Thanks Mike! This was my first feeding shot. Never know when you will run across something like this so I keep my eye out. Bob
