Wow an amazing shot, you don't get many captures like that in a lifetime. Max points.

kemp  07/24/05 @638

Oh my god ! Sincerely, this is probably the first interesting "insect macro shot" I see on this site. I usually hate those... being all the same. But yours is just awesome. Great movement, colors and overall look. You can be proud of yourself... well done. J.

SubiDome  07/24/05 @652

Very nice capture! I've tried to take a shot of a spider with an egg, but it's impossible.. But you got it pretty well! a bit too tight over the spider tho..

Dax  07/24/05 @726

Oh my God! Well captured but.... oh my God!

Great capture, color, lighting, focus, subject and composition. (Did I miss anything?) Needs to have the Exif info added to the description. 9/9

eYrennaY  07/26/05 @540

Poor spider, she's terrify XD (nice mood), nice lighting and colors. Just great XD Is she holding her spider-eggs ?

Andrzej  07/26/05 @594

maikalote  07/26/05 @795

@eYrennaY: yea those are spider-eggs, and I let her go in some bushes when I had taken the photo . . . . . I think she is safe :lol:

Wish I had something uniquely constructive to add, but I don't. This is a one in a million shot. 9/9!

ThruMyEyez  07/27/05 @522

A very well done macro! Perfect lighting and composition.

texel  07/28/05 @257

! Excellent!

omni  07/28/05 @320

is the blackness in the top-left corner natural or photoshopped?

christianK  07/28/05 @371

spiders are so disgusting. But you´ve taken a wonderful picture.

OrangeBud  07/28/05 @433

This picture is amaizing, very very good shot ! +7/7

maytree  07/28/05 @436

Hxkraft  07/28/05 @548

Not perfect? a great macro shot to me love the light here.

elf  07/28/05 @582

Great!

maikalote  07/28/05 @824

@ omni: God knows i love Photoshop :lol: jea it's photoshopped

bluemonkey  07/29/05 @986

this is pretty awesome. its too bad it get blurry at the bottom. but yeah nice and crisp and great capture of the texture on the spider. lighting is also well done.

maikalote  07/29/05 @009

i actually like the blurr because it creates a diagonal crisp line that makes your eyes look spiders eyes and her stance . . . . . . . .cause this photo was made for people that are really afraid of spiders to show them that these hoible creatures have instincts . . . . u see the pose the spider takes to protect her egs, this shows at least that they are aware of the world around them . . . . . they are alive like we are, and there is no point of beeing scared of them, for they will not hurt us if we dont hurt them

joshc529  07/29/05 @150

Great shot- no crits +9/9

eremita  07/29/05 @164

Everything its wonderful, great macro capture! The only little thing that it bothers me its the obvious burned corner, but I know it enhances the feeling.... Superb Work!

eowyn  07/29/05 @255

OMG....how the hell did you do that???

Meagan  07/29/05 @313

Simply an amazing image 10+

ARTOONATOR  07/29/05 @670

Very special, espescially because it's a rare quality spider-photograph. She is carrying her eggs, so it's a good thing she wasn't harmed. *added to favorite artworks*

munchroom  07/30/05 @412

WOW!!!! Great shot! Never seen a spider with it's eggs! This photo is perfect...picture of your life!

emarts  08/01/05 @260

Hope you didn't get too close! Excellent composition. About the corner thoug, I do the same thing to my photos sometimes to really enhance the feeling.

CalinnVojnngat  09/19/05 @812

omg this is incredible....(i'm quite aracnophobic) is a wonderful shot, wonderful scene, wonderful portrait of a mother +9

Xeptix  10/21/05 @745

As much as I hate spiders, I can't stop looking at the details of this piece. I've never seen a spider acting a mammal would, defending her young. Simply amazing, I'll have to remember this next time I'm about to squash one! +7/7

Aldor  06/09/06 @675

Fantastic !!!
