Today I’ve been prowling around, acting suspicious around my house, still trying to work out this macrophotography thing. I just now found a lovely Parasteatoda doing her business in a nook on the side of my house, so I had to snap a picture. My house has rather orange siding, which accounts for the warm tones of the background.
I caught her in the act of wrapping up her prey. The flies are everywhere today…eat more, ma’am. Many more.
Then I noticed in a little cranny another treasure — she has an egg sac nearby. Sorry to say, I’m going to steal it. More embryos for the development lab!
Really nice shots.
I agree. And for postprocessing, there’s enough info there that a simple curves adjustment (to the lightness channel of LAB color) will really bring out some of the spidery goodness lying passively in the shadows.
(IMO anyway…because I can’t help myself and have to chime in.)
In regards to macrophotography… More light means smaller aperture means more depth of field.
P. tep? Isn’t that the movie about zombies and an aging Elvis impersonator?
The Trump administration is rubbing off on you. You arachnapper!
Ah wish I could send you a pair of jumping spiders as pets.
