I have so many posters, most of them will never be available. The problem is that you have to print 50-100 copies to get a decent price and then you have to store everything in your apartment. Imagine how much space you need to store only 5 different posters.

I've spent around 70 hours for this one https://flic.kr/p/LtwpXW, don't know it for the other ones.


Some "normal" macros again:

Two old "remastered" images. I entered a professional macro competition with the H. mac. one. :snaphappy:
Those are really cool photos. I like how you can see their reflections.

Were those taken when the tarantulas were hanging out on the glass wall of their enclosure (and rotated to make them look horizontal)?

No, it doesn't work with normal glass, glass gives you a double reflection. There are many reasons why this wouldn't work in the enclosure (reflection, dirt, stacking, lighting). This is studio work, like 99% of my work.
