Some nice shots there, I like the compostion of 4, did you lighten the top right in post?

Perhaps posting what gear you were using might be helpful for others? I believe from the catch lights you were using a flash on the hotshoe?

One niggle is the shallow depth of field (DOF) on a couple of them, sometimes it can add to the picture other times it would be nice to get more (numbers 5+10 for example). Obviously this can be tricky with macro shots, but if this bad boy sits still, longer exposures with the aid of a tripod might let you use a slower aperture.

Not really a fan of 6 and 7 though.

Also where where these taken, am I right in thinking that the spider is a pet?

Keep it up, I love seeing what people can get using macro.

Lovely little spiders. Harvestmen are so much fun to photograph, patient models.

Lovely compositions and DOF in all of them. My faves are 1, 4 & 5

Beautiful shots and interesting spiders. Composition is great and they are so wonderfully sharp and detailled.
What camera/lenses did you use for these?

I can't wait to try Makro.
