Shutter speed 1/128s
Aperture f/28
Marco at 5mm![]()
Daddy long legs (crane fly) I think Gremlin? Only 6 legs!Another spider for you to look at until the one xaccy took comes out of hibernation.

Please accept my ignorance Susie, I am not really into insecty things and only tried macro out of curiosity. I will probably get rid of my new macro lens now I have lost interest.
I have some great photos of proper big cranes that don't fly though.
I would never suggest you were ignorant... and whatever it is it's still a good picture. Don't give up with the macro!Please accept my ignorance Susie, I am not really into insecty things and only tried macro out of curiosity. I will probably get rid of my new macro lens now I have lost interest.

What lens is it, gremlin?
Nikon AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Lens but I prefer to you manual focus.
No VR on it though so you need a steady hand or a tripod, in my case I use a walking stick/monopod.
think i have it this time
It's a garden spider... common enough. Great shot though.Great pic, but not fond of the subject matter.......I am just about getting to grips with insecty/arachnid/gastropod type pics.......it is davemac to blame for this......I'm still a bit chary though.
I'm sure Davemac will be along shortly to tell you what kind of spider it is.
