The outcome after my last image.
Sigma SD14 dslr
Sigma 50 EX macro lens
Sigma ring flash
Hand held
F18
1/200s
ISO50
Manual exposure
RAW adjustment in
SPP3.5
Cropped in PS Elements 5
Framed with Xara Xtreme Pro 5
very nice sharp and detailed shot but the colour looks a bit off on the spiders head.

Hi David
Lovely detailed shot as usual!

Like it David, maybe a little higher in the frame for me.

Potentially, spot on except for the OOF front legs. While they don't impact too heavily on the overall effect, at F/18 I'd have expected a greater degree of sharpenss if the camera-to-subject position had been a little different.
Good attempt and something that can be revisited.
Cheers,
Chris

Again David I think some of the light and colours have been muted here which makes the spider and wrapped prey look quite flat. I like the idea and the detail expressed elsewhere in the image but DOF nit mentioned.
