Gonna get ya !

Description

Now you know what the prey sees before she gets in big trouble!

That capture was taken today in the early evening in the garden of my sister.Even if I hate spiders they have an incredible attraction to me and my camera :)This blue background is a bigger toy of my nephew I couldn't remove.
Applied some contrast and sharped it a bit in PSE3

1/60s f/4,9 at 23,4mm iso automatic handheld with flash in macromode.

Sylvia Rossler September 10, 2005

Thx Luis :o) #1822069

Daniel Diaz September 10, 2005

Great shot Sylvia, you mentioned you couldn't remove the blue, was that by choice or technical reasons? #1822331

Sylvia Rossler September 10, 2005

Thx Daniel :o) I meant that while I took that shot the best position to take it was with that blue bg .Other possible backgrounds were much more distracting.I could have removed it later with PS but I changed my mind :) Even if it is an unnatural color I find it fits on that capture :o) #1822344

Sylvia Rossler September 10, 2005

gosh I have trouble to express myself today :o)
Daniel ! My remark under the capture was meant that in first place I wanted to move away the blue toy but it was too heavy for me :o)
Now i'm going to bed I obviously need rest :) Good night to everyone :o) #1822351
