Have to approach him/her really slowly and this is the closest I can get

Guys, would like to ask regarding unfilled warranty.
This warranty consider local or SG?

would it still valid if we plan to claim it later?

theres someone selling d750 in garage. plan to get the body and i want to know you guys honest opinion first.

THANKS! 

The trick to photographing lizards is to go out during early morning, say 7-10am, when the lizards (poikilotherms) have to bask in the sun for energy. Most of them will not have enough energy to run away from you, and will often just perch lifelessly on tree trunks or twigs etc. 

Lizards that are alert to your presence and ready to flee will press their bodies towards the ground/bottom, as seen in the shot above. Those that are still feeling pretty okay (un-threatened) will not do that (see below)- you will have an idea whether they are going to run away or not~

Great Angle Head Lizard- Gonocephalus grandis ♂♀ by Ji Tan, on Flickr

haha I think having a 150mm focal length helps a lot too, but I lose out a lot in terms of DOF compared to shorter macro lenses
yeah 

Another Jumping Spider

Thanks Waiting for the outing so that I can have an idea about making myself a new diffuser.

The more I photograph these spiders the easier it became for me to find them, I guess I am slowly learning their behaviours. 

Probably the rarest thing I've shot until now.

More macro!

Big-bellied Tylorida with prey- Tylorida ventralis ♀ by Ji Tan, on Flickr

A very common spider that you can find pretty much anywhere in the wild. The males can often be seen hanging out with the females on the same web, and it is not uncommon to see them mating in public

Any idea of the ID for the following spiders?

Holy! Where did you find #2 and #3? In Kampar?
@DS_Legacy will be interested to know since his project is on these spiders   

Glad that you are seeing more types of arachnids now hehe~

As for the ID:
#1- can't really tell, need more angles
#2- Leucauge decorata- Decorative Leucauge (from the family Tetragnathidae). Members of the family Tetragnathidae (commonly know as big-jawed spiedrs) are all very long and slim, and sometimes have very big jaws.
#3- Opadometa sp.- This one is very closely related to Leucauge (also from the family Tetragnathidae). Try to take a look at the 4th pair of legs (counting from the front), you will see some very beautiful comb-like bristles that are worth taking 

i didn't say it is bad spamming spider
i am actually okay for seeing spider... maybe cats next time :3

thanks for the info regarding the spiders 

Haha too bad I didn't shot them in kampar, I shot them back in the last sem break at FRIM which is really close to my house (i'm from KL)
