some photos on macro

[Justdragons]

I have a nikon d5100 and havent really worked out how to use it at all, however i found the macro setting and like it quite a bit..

I had a spider walk across my hand tonight so i took a few photos.. I think its a run of the mill huntsman? I like the black and white on the legs..

nice huntsman. They are great spiders. (my missus get a bit more friendly with them than I do

 

[Justdragons]

yeah i didnt want to touch it, it ran over me.

did sit nice and still while i took some photos though.

Nice photos there! I have an older version of the camera, a Nikon D3100, and find it takes some awesome photos. Would love to see some nice macro shots of your dragons and snakes!

Wow they are great photos and a very nice spider.
what lens are you using?

 

[dragondude]

Definitely an awesome T.
I'm using an all rounder lens.
Sigma 17-70mm.
Excellent walkabout lens that will not break the bank.

I couldn't handle a spider running over my hand...... Then take photos of it haha nice photos though

Great photos! I love spiders, they are so intesting to look at, and at least it was only a huntsman that ran over your hand

here is one of mine, not as good though, used cannon 600d and 18-55 lense

 

[Justdragons]

Wow he is hairy. That's a good shot too.

This would have to be the best spider photo I have taken so far. Taken on a Nikon D3100 with a stock 18-55 mm lens. I forget what setting it was taken on, it was either manual or aperture priority.
Grey Huntsman.

No the wolf is not very big. You can see the grains of sand in the picture.
Yes a macro lens. I use a Nikon D7000 and a 105mm f/2.8 Lens.
Thanks.
