newbie / my first sad attempts

minus

Hi all :rofl

Below are my first attempts at some spider shots I know they're a bit blurry and grainy, but no proper lens + no tripod + no experience does that to you :P Oh, and I guess they might be more close-ups that macros too.. Argh..

Anywho, any comments and criticism would be highly appreciated!

I like the shots. Nice work.

Welcome to the forum
Good shots.
Yes closeups rather than macro but very good for first tries. Not sure about the B&W treatment though.

Thanks for the feedback!
I def. see your point regarding the b&w, no more of that from now on!
I just got my first macro lens (after those shots were taken), so from now on I'll try to get some "proper" macros

..let the fun begin ^^

he first frame looks good large, but a colourfull spider just does not work in b&w.

you need to copy and paste the bottom small box undernieth your picture in flickr, not the top larger one.

lets see some more in colour
