That sp. Bach ma is so awesome. Can't wait until they're readily available!!

Good luck on the breeding (knowing your success, I'm just gonna wait patiently for the pics of the sac and nymphs, hehe).

Thanks for the L. sp. "Borneo" examples Chad, looks like I have one of each!

 

[Hydrazine]

sigh...Once again, you're convincing me that picking one Poecilotheria species is not enough.

And that's after I've finally made the big step and got myself two lovely P.ornata spiderlings..

 

[Quazgar]

Great pictures. I imagine you probably have already said somewhere in the thread, but I don't have time to comb through almost 100 pages right now : what kind of setup are you using for your photographs? Extension tubes on a macro? Reverse mounting? Also, what about your lighting?

Your collection is making me jealous.

 

[Shrike]

Great shots!

Haha, they are an awesome genus!

Thank you! I've gone through a few different set-ups but here is the current;

Nikon D7100
Tokina 100mm f2.8
2 Nikon SB-R200 speedlights
Raynox DCR250(not pictured)

Great shots!

Thanks Matt! I hope all is well with your new two-legged critter!


Ornithoctoninae sp. 'Laos'

Holothele incei started to molt to 2i

 

[papilio]

Beautiful Chad, love the glow!

Maybe try a time-lapse of a first instar molt sometime ... ? I don't think I've ever seen that, you'd be the one to do it!!

 

[Shawq0x01]

Great photos! I really like the macro shots...the detail is just amazing!
