Tim: This is excellent. GREAT party crasher(s). Did the smaller one become lunch? Really well seen and captured. >=))>

Good looking image. The big critter is particularly ugly to my eye and being upside down just makes him look that much more alien - great contrast to the blooms. I like the image a lot Timothy.

Tim:
Flowers are great but the critters add drama.

Tim, Good call on F/32

- great handling of the DOF for this lovely pea flower with those "crepes" clearly seen. The Main Party crasher also looks great to me.

Awesome Tim. These spiders are extremely carnivorous and will take on a bug twice their size. Would this look unrealistic if you flipped it 180'?
