Posted by ally (: (Singapore, Singapore) on 8 July 2007 in Animal & Insect.
this yellow dude hopped onto my camera while i was attempting to take a photo of him. i think i shrieked. honestly, i can't remember. i was too busy trying not to drop my camera whilst attempting to bravely shake him off. haha. unfortunately, i didnt have my dslr/macro lens around. hence, this wasn't as macro as i wanted it to be but oh wells! i seem to have an affinity with yellow spiders though, as you'll see in my next update (:
will be going for a sleepover tomorrow, so i'll probably catch up with you guys on weds or thurs! :D

A noteworthy capture under the circumstances. What is its size?

@tengtan: hmm. it was about 0.5 by 1 cm big? hahaa. rough estimate.
Nice DOF. Great detail and colours.

I must say you are a very courageous person...I would have dropped my camera and run as fast as it was possible :D. Great little fellow all eyes and legs. Great capture!
10 Jul 2007 7:20am
Little creatures can be scarry. And fascinating at the same time. Brought me a smile. Thanks Allyy.
10 Jul 2007 10:33am
This is great! He is so strange looking, I didn't think he was real. Very nice.
10 Jul 2007 11:40am
Cool close-up!
10 Jul 2007 6:42pm
That is totally cool - even more amazing, looks like the same rock I shot my bug today on. Never seen the like of that spider, though. Not too upset about that, either. :)
10 Jul 2007 10:09pm
Holy cow I would have jumped too. Never seen a spider look like that!!!
11 Jul 2007 12:59am
I am just like you, except, I may prolly drop my cam. Oh gosh! *sobs* I try to stay away from bugs but sometimes you can't help but wanting to take an interesting close up shot of a bug. I.shall.be.brave. *phew*
The picture is great. I like the close up and the details. Nicely done ally.
11 Jul 2007 3:09am
@ling: nothing ventured, nothing gained ;)
Still a great picture... At least, your arachnophobia is not as severe as me, as you can take pictures of them, while I can't!
11 Jul 2007 1:31pm
Great capture and details. I like this macro!
11 Jul 2007 3:47pm
My! What beautiful eyes.
12 Jul 2007 3:31pm
I think the spider looks kinda adorable with that nervous looking expression and those huge eyes.:D nice shot:)
14 Jul 2007 1:05am
Wow, cool macro :)
20 Jul 2007 3:51am
I hate spiders but do like to watch them spinning the web sitting a little far away from the 6-legged freaks...
Anyways a good capture too
