Probably going to get killed on this one. But I think all nature is beautiful. Used a Canon EF 100mm 1:2.8 Macro lens and lens extender. Cropped and Sharpened slightly.

I really like your spider, but I'd like to see the whole thing and focus.

Ugh, I agree with your title, but I greatly dislike bugs! No points off for that though! The lack of focus in the foreground is hard for the eye to get past to see the "face" of the subject. 5

as much as spiders scare me, this photo intrigues me. Excellent clarity if his eyes
the DOF is specific to his eyes and "face" WTG!

Love the reflections, the narrow DOF sure works to focus on the face!

I'm afraid you'll get hammered with this one, but you probably know that already. I love critters, and have NO problems with this one, either, but even I wouldn't call it beautiful. Fascinating, though, in its wonderful macro detail.

Great DOF almost makes it look like he is about to attack me. The eyes or atleast I think those are eyes are just awesome. Very well done.

I gave you an 9, not because I really like to watch spiders, but because this is just a beautiful capture of the creature. I went into the spider's world myself for quite a while, capturing their life and homes, you can find it at //pbase.com/lookheretitia in one of my albums.

Thats a big bugger. Despite the title, doesn't scream "Beautiful". Lovely macro though, scares the crap out of me. [8]

Most interesting. Great colors. Good job of taking something that is not-so-beautiful and making it...well, I'm not so sure I can go as far as 'beautiful', but at least 'interesting'. <7>

Ohmygosh! LOL! Were you eyeball to eyeball or did you zoom in??? He/she looks like a deer caught in the headlights. Nice capture!
