These were all done with the 60mm macro and the extension tubes?

Actually how close were you to the spiders? I would LOVE to get photos like this, they are gorgeous, but spiders absolutely FREAK ME OUT! but I'm obsessed with photographing them.

Anyways, great photos, just a bit creepy.

I like all of these a lot, but the first two, in particular. I think the composition on the second is wonderful, as is the background.

Thanks for the comments folks.
Candid Arts - Using the 60mm plus the extension tubes I am about 70mm from the subject.

Yeah no way I could do that. That'd just freak me out. Any movement of the spider would send me flying back and heart racing.

Excellent photos though. Congrats!

All great shots. #4 totally creeps me out... Excellent! How many eyes... !

Thanks for the comment Cindy. Most spiders have eight eyes, including this one, although I believe there are some that have six.
