A tiny spider on the branch of a vine-like plant.

The funny thing is I didn’t realise it was there till I uploaded the shots to the computer, because it’s small and blends in so well.

The reason it is ready to fight is because I stuck my hand there so the camera could focus, and I would have brushed against him quite a few times. (lucky I wasn’t bitten , although it doesn’t look very dangerous)

Close up of spider: here

-Taken: 19th August 2006, 2:45pm
-Natural lighting
-Original size: 3264x2448

Cropped, added a bit of contrast (which was too much so I removed most of it anyway), and brought out the colours in Photoshop.


Enjoy

I love this sort of photography. Really simple but full of texture. Wow great natural lighting too, what time of day was it taken?

Cool shot! The spider looks cool, but more importantly the focus and lighting are both excellent. Also the plant has a fantastic texture.

Wow Jazz. thats amazing. what a perfect, if somewhat accidental shot you've got.
The Picture itself is fantastic, the addition of the spider is simply brilliant.
