a friendly face
I found miss Tegenaria on the wall in the cellar.
Its worth to take a closer look I thought.
C and C are always welcome friends.
Canon 20D, extension tubes, Nikon enlarging lens in retro and
softet flash.
Greetings,
Bertl

What a pretty face! I think this needs more depth of field to get those impressive fangs in focus.

well captured Bertl, you've managed to get the DOF right on the eyes which is never easy. I do like extreme macro shots such as this.

Terrific macro shot. You can see all eight eyes. Unbelievable creatures.
How did you get him/her posing for you? Most of the times they walk away (a least with me).

It doesn't look particularly friendly to me Bert.
