Description

MATTTIDBALL.COM A very small (probably juvenile) Crab Spider. Maybe 3mm in length with the legs folded in. It took some time to get the right shot. I just discovered a new technique to get MUCH closer to the subject. :) My macro lens can't get nearly this close.

Hmmm, you know that I don't speak a fluent english, dear... Is there a main difference between "crab spider" and "crap spighter"? What do you think about mine? (I mean spider, of course, not crap/crab/anything...) I love yours! She looks so sweet... ;-)

Another great close up! Extremely close and well executed. You have your own "Spidy Sense" by the looks of it. KP
