Hi all,
I finally got around to doing some more scanning. This photo was
actually taken in portrait orientation but I think it looks better
this way.

This is the second attempt of two. The first one was focussed on the
legs at front. When I'm shooting handheld macro I often take two or
three photos because it's virtually impossible to stand still enough
for perfect focus. I'm starting to learn the benefits of a monopod
(I find tripods a bit cumbersome for 35mm).
I've used a larger file than usual this time. I've yet to decide on
the size that I will eventually standardise on when I redo my page
design, and I've been listening to the people who have asked for
bigger files :)
The body of the spider is very dark in the slide and I attempted to
bring out a little detail (mostly toward the back). My screen is
quite bright and I have pretty dim lighting in the room at the
moment, so you might not be able to see much of it. I might have
another play with it tomorrow.
Opinions are appreciated.
Cheers,
- Dave
