Thank you man!  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif
Jumping Spiders (Salticids) have some of the cutest eyes, which is why many love to photograph them XD
Other creepier spiders can have 6-8 eyes, where members of different families might show different eye arrangements! Very interesting~

Shot taken with Mark III baby XD

Wow, that is an interesting shot man!
Flies will secrete fluids when they find suitable food. The fluid will digest the food before the fly sucks them up  brows.gif
I'm sure its a great shot hehe, share share~~

I've never seen anything like that before though haha, and I don't intend on waiting beside dog poo to find out XD
We all have to start somewhere thumbup.gif
I used to be very poor in my macro shots too haha
Yeah, CY sifu's photos are so good, both the cars and girls  wub.gif
Coincidentally I am also working a bit on some insect research, so I know some of them haha, I just refer to books or scientific literature. I can only ID the commons ones la haha Still much to learn~

Usually noneed to wait (unless flying or hunting shot), just find them and shoot laugh.gif
Like copperwire93 mentioned, its more about composition, focusing and ninja stealth to not scare them away XD

Hey, I'm here less than 6 months, really newbie. Just go "camera-blazing" and post your work here. See others' photos too to learn and lastly, enjoy your hobby. nod.gif
In a nutshell, people say non-vc is much sharper than the vc one, but vc surely can help you to reduce camera shake especially in lowlight situation. But, maximum 50mm is enough for you to make do without VC. Hence, the choice is yours. Hehe! That's all I can advice. sweat.gif

Nice try bro~  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif
Which model are you using ya?
I think the shot might be better if taken from the front, where all the numbers are sharp~
Can try taking the shot outside too, since most people prefer taking indoors laugh.gif
Its amazing how much sunlight can improve a photo, can try it out yo  icon_rolleyes.gif

A noob shot from me, from quite a long time ago laugh.gif
