My 2nd attempt, thanks to some advice, I used some flash and my awesome Zuiko 50/2 Macro. Manual focus, ISO 320, Flash on 1/8 with diffuser, 1/250, f8.

All the same spider, tried some different processing. Can you tell me which you prefer and why, or are they all about equal?

Lovely shot(s) ? of the female orbweb spider - Prefer the last #5 - seems to have the most natural colour with no blown areas.
