Crab spider lunch
Haven't had chance to get out for ages, just trawling through a drive and came across this. Usually I see these as they disappear over the side of a petal so pleased to find one already under a flower and busy.

Very colourful. Don't see to many shots of these as they are usually so well camouflaged. Great to get of a shot of it eating something. :toast:

All part of that world we so easily overlook - good colourful capture Paul.

Very nice, the background colour make this feel very abstract. A little more dof would have helped though.

Cheers,

Dan.

Very colourful image Paul - the worlds a different place when you've got a good macro lens isn't it :toast: :wavey:
