9 - Oh boy. You turned it into a different creature altogether. Very good photo. Just the front 'feet' need, out or, focus or, something. Look at those 'eyebrows'. Well done.

I was sure this was a dog's nose. I still am actually. But too many eyes are looking at me from this nose!
Amazing shot!!! 10

Great detail and you are focused perfectly. Hard to do with so little DOF. NIce 8

Oh my god! How did you get the guts to get so close! This gives me the willies so bad I just lifted my feet off the ground and crossed them in my chair! The expression/look on his face! Great catch! You are very brave! lol
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/04/2005 02:19:52 PM
Ewww... Scary eyes! Great DOF & color around the eyes. I'd like to have seen a little more clarity in the near proximity, but still a great shot! The best spider shot I've seen so far.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/04/2005 01:58:24 PM
wow. I am actually speechless. He's not quite ugly, not quite funny. But he is a little ridiculous. Amazing capture. Comp, DOF, POV all great. Choice of subject great. For some reason he reminds me of Bert or Ernie. Must be the mouth. 9 from me, good luck in the challenge!

Incredible detail. That is about as close and personal as I'd ever want to be to that ugly creature. But what a great macro photo!! 10
