Alien Spider
This little fellow was spotted on one of my roses today so out came my old 3 megapixel Ricoh Caplio RR30 from 2002. I chose this great little camera as it focuses down to 10mm with great results. I wouldn't use this feature for funnel webs and the like but this little green fellah looked harmless enough. It's a shame to lose quality when downsizing the images for this forum.

Nice shots, Steve. I have one of those Caplios myself, and still use it more than my other cameras!

Thanks guys, I'm inspired to go hunting for other little creatures in the garden and hopefully capture some decent images.
