A tiny little jumping spider, that despite all my herding and prodding, was determined I was not going to interrupt its lunch. Orange and Pink body that blended perfectly to the orchid it was using as bait. Luckily it stood out better on my jeans, but I only managed to get off two shots before it jumped and it was gone (oh and it didn’t drop its lunch either!). Canon 40D / Canon MP-E 65mm @3x + 1.4x tc / Ringflash / Manual: 1/400sec, f/14, ISO-400 / Finished in Lightroom. Llewellyn St, Rhodes, NSW ps: I submitted this to the group Bug Hunt – which is quite literally what is going on in this photo 8-)

(usual place – a few weeks back) Northern Suburbs Crematorium / and Memorial Gardens, Chatswood / Ryde, NSW. Darwinian Theory favours those best adaptable to change, and certainly even change in one’s self. In this case, I refer to the fact that the old habits of the past might be detrimental to survival if certain factors change, like, for example, becoming so large that you can nolonger hide under your favorite leaf without being a sitting target for a Kingfisher or a Magpie. Funnily enough, I was there first time to take photos of roses. / I panned… and the funniest thing… and the rest was history… and there’s no looking back. I now know that this place is THE PLACE TO BE for strange looking jumping spiders, that seem to have been ignored by other aspiring spider photographers in NSW. Finally I’ve found a niche within which to express my various talents! I was lucky to get a few shots of this rather large-ish spider, however in successive visits, was mortified to discover that not only was the spider gone, but also the entire branch. I suppose that in this Global Financial Crisis that it is cheaper than buying flowers, but to steal them from a cemetery – well that’s just low. / I hope it was for a worthy cause. :-( Canon 5D2 + 100mm / f/8, 1/250sec, ISO 800 (natural light)

a friend of mine brought a (slightly dusty, >10 years old) pin-mounted fly to work for me to photograph. this was an experiment with a Canon MP-E 65mm + 1.4x teleconverter and 2×25mm tubes, giving a maximum magnification of 10:1. (3.6mm across a 36mm sensor) Canon 5D2, 1/200sec, f/10, ISO 1600 + ringflash. / 5616×3744 pixels @ 240dpi (not cropped) / Processed in Lightroom. as a technical note, in case you are puzzled, if I use just the tubes with the MP-E, I get a serious level of vignetting, however if I put the teleconverter between the MP-E and the tubes, I get a 100% usable frame with no vignetting. Credits: thanks to Vinita for loaning me her fly.

After more than 15 years, and thanks to modern technology, scientists have finally been able to determine the cause of death of this fly. Presenting Problem: “Dust Allergy” Close-up of a fly’s nose @ 10:1 taken with a Canon 5D2 + MPE 65mm(at 5x) + 1.4x tc + 2×25mm extension tubes; placed on desktop and propped up with books; / f/13, ISO 400, 1/200sec + ringflash(at 4:1) Camera Faithful + defaults in Lightroom; / Soft Focus corrected with High Pass sharpen + Linear Light blend in Photoshop.

This is a 5x macro of something taken at ISO 25600, with a yellowish desklamp and an overhead 25W eco-bulb as the only light sources. Sharpening in Noise Ninja. / Exported from Lightroom at 50% quality due to the ISO noise levels. Hints: this is a “VERY” common item in the house. It is 95% composed of carbon and/or complex carbon chains. It’s interesting to look at. This is what it looks like from the side. Here are two photos of different brands. Solved in 21 guesses by DJ LeMay – “duct tape”

For bubble jeopardy. This is a 2.5x macro of something with a strong backlight shining through it. It is a collection of many similarly sized things with a uniform colour. / I’ve made it bow out by bending a bunch of them and using a large bulldog clip at both ends to hold the bunch together, and shot at ISO 3200, F/4.5 and 1/400sec (after ev+1.5) directly through it into the light source. Very low level of NR applied. This is probably so obvious it doesn’t need hints, but I thought it looked cool. Ok. maybe it isn’t that obvious. It is small, but not very small. It would fit in your hand. If you’re like me and you need to W _ _ _ E S_ _ FF D _ _ N so you don’t 4 _ _T then you probably use these every day.

Something very small, yet none too friendly looking just hatched and clinging to its egg suspended from a leaf by a fine thread. Northern Suburbs Memorial Gardens and Crematorium, Delhi Rd, Chatswood / Ryde, NSW. Canon 5D2 + MPE at 5x / 1/200sec, f/11, ISO 1600 + ringflash at 4:1 split / Processed in Lightroom UPDATE: 19.11.2009: this is a Lacewings Larvae (thanks to Peter Chew of www.brisbaneinsects.com who very kindly responded to my email inquiry today). The link: www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_lacewings / According to the site, the eggs are laid on stalks to keep them separate when hatched to prevent cannibalism – apparently they are ferocious insect preditors.

a droplet suspended from a spiders web - 5x magnification on 35mm frame / - size of droplet, less than 1mm / (I realise the droplet isn’t centered, however I’m not going to crop this one, because I like the green diagonal.)
