I shot these on holiday in Dorset last september , just got round to looking at them properly.

all focus stacked 5 - 18 frames hand held

Sweet!

In the last one, who is eating who? Spiders hunt lizards? I would have not thought that.
Also, European bugs seem to be far more co-operative. Can't get them to sit still for even one frame down here......much less 5-18 frames.

Each ventral view shows the epigyne of a female, just behind the hind legs.

Apart from the rarity of the last one, the stacking of the first one really impresses me.
