I thought all spiders were black until I took this picture I was amazed,info for the photo geeks.

Shutter speed 1/128s
Aperture f/28
Marco at 5mm:confused:
 
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!
 
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.

tend to take a lot of my landscapes with a stick, but couldnt do macro lol id be "wiggling", too much
 
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.
 
think i have it this time

It's a garden spider... common enough. Great shot though.

There are around 40,000 different species of spider - and they're not all black!
