Download a must, especially the second one. Striking! Any idea who he or she is?

What a super spider shot! I love the composition of #1 for the "itty bitty" aspect, but it was also fun to download and enlarge to get a close-up :)

Nice ones Bill. I'm in England at the moment without my macro so for 2 weeks it is all birds.

Thanks! So far I can not ID this one. I don't believe it's a picture wing fly like I first thought, but a type of fruit fly.

I typically crop much closer but, I'm working a little more on composition than documentation all the time. I thought the size reference would be of interest. This spider was really itty bitty.

If I recall, I even did a slight crop to this image, which was shot 1:1.

The download on #2 is awesome! Interesting image on the wings - an great example of mimicry - looks like a spider - to confuse predators such as lizards and birds.
