EMPS # 55: BUGS

"EMPS #55: BUGS.
Ants, Cockroaches, Beetles, Sow Bugs, Earwigs, Pincher Bugs, Bees, Wasps, Fire Flies, Snails, Slugs, Banana Slugs, Spiders, Scorpions... no matter who you are, one of these things probably BUGS you. So, grab your cameras this week, and photograph the BUG and share it with us!

Extra Credit: Show us your BUG using the macro setting on your camera."

Photo taken using my Macro lens Raynox DCR 250, not a good one because I was afraid the spider would jump on me!

Hi Jama :)

Not good? Hon, it's fantastic! I think you showed a lot of bravery by photographing such an icky looking spider. You are a lot braver then I am. I try so hard to get this close and I don't get anywhere near as close as you did. GREAT JOB! At this safe distance... all the way over here... that is certainly a colorful spider!

Yes, I agree with Carly -- that's a stunning shot of the spider! You are much braver than I am to have taken the picture.

Wonderful photograph of a creature that deserves to be recognised for the role it has in the balance of nature.

Very nice. Close-up shots of spiders can look quite scary. Don't you think?
