Nice one man, you really improved alot
Selection of a proper spot avoids harsh shadows on the model, and the pose is pretty good ^^
The shot could be taken at a closer distance though, focusing more on the model and less on the left wall

Keep it up~~

Nice one, great separation between subjects and background

I think its okay haha, the floor adds depth to the photo
If for me I would probably crop the photo into 16:9 format

^ LOL, not bad

Lynx Spider- Hamataliwa sp. ♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

Found this orange beauty beside a lily pond, waiting for prey. Hamataliwa Lynx Spiders are different from regular Oxyopes by having shorter legs and boxier cephalothorax.

Harvestman (Opiliones) by PF T.J., on Flickr

If you are afraid of daddy long-legged spiders, then you are going to be terrified by these arachnids!

Many harvestmen may look like much larger versions of daddy long-legged spiders we have at home, but they are not considered as spiders due to the lack of a true thorax and abdomen.

Harvestmen are usually omnivores and can be found in moist, shaded areas of parks or forests.

Giant Golden Web Spider- Nephila pilipes ♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

It is that time of the year again, where most of the Nephila spiders- the largest orb-weavers of the world, reach adulthood.

This female Nephila lie in wait at the centre of her 1.5m web, waiting for prey in a banana plantation.

**There is actually a mosquito sucking "blood" from the abdomen of the spider; and another water mite sucking "blood" from the mosquito!

Unknown Crab Spider (Camaricus? ♂) by PF T.J., on Flickr

Who is that Pokemon?

No idea what this one is but it kind of look like a Flat-abdomen crab spider (Camaricus maugei). I guess you never expect when you will find something new- found this male crab spider in my car lol @@

Common FlashWing- Vestalis amethystina ♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

These damselflies have transparent wings with purplish iridescence- very beautiful when they flew under the sunlight


Those metallic green body color is damn fancy too hehe~

Flashwings can be easily found in quieter parts of rivers with slow-moving water and plenty of shades

Double-spotted spiny Spider- Thelacantha brevispina ♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

Double-spotted spiny spiders are generally widespread, but can usually be found in higher elevations.

These spiders look very much like the Gasteracantha kuhli spiny spiders and are often mistaken for one another.

A "modest" Cross Spider- Argiope modesta ♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

A large, gravid Cross Spider after performing a drop-from-web technique, usually to confuse predators.

This species of spider may not look much, but when seen under the rising or setting sun, A. modesta may be the most beautiful spiders you have ever seen yet, as the abdomen "reflects" the sunlight.

Very busy lei, start working liao huhu

Fireworks shots are pretty good
As for the lion dances, I guess it won't be easy taking very good pictures when you are in the crowd (too many photos of other people's hands). Picking the right location makes a lot of difference, but then the opportunity may not always be available

Nursery Web Spider- Hygropoda sp. ♂ (?) by PF T.J., on Flickr

Not really sure what spider this one is but both the male and female build similar webs such as this- small-sized, messy, and with a hole in the centre for the spider.

Olive Tree Skink - Dasia cf. olivacea by PF T.J., on Flickr

Skinks are small lizards with scaly but smooth skin, and a cone-shaped head; they are usually quite slender as well. Most are found among leaf litters.


Just like Geckos, most have tails that snap off easily, ones that can be easily regenerated

Cross Spider- Argiope cf. chloreis ♀ by PF T.J., on Flickr

This particular cross spider is unique in its own way due to its way smaller size (when compared to its cousins) and the dull greenish-grey colouring of the abdomen.

These spiders are often found building their small webs across the width of leaves.


Greater Housefly Catcher- Plexippus paykulii ♂ by PF T.J., on Flickr

Look who dropped by the office today?
Finally, after a few years looking, I have finally found this supposedly common Jumping Spider.... and the first thing that comes to mind after photographing this is the Nutella Duo (white and chocolate), yummy yummy!

FF getting more and more affordable

No one loves macro here except me
