Not a T, but one of the best shots of my chameleon:

Edited by He Who Rules:

Uh Uh, only T pics allowed

 

[MrDeranged]

@ Mark,

Only macros, no blow ups allowed.

@ Joost,

Great pic, but only tarantula pics are allowed in this thread. I'm removing the lizard from the post

Wicked pics guys, i am afraid i am not a contender as i only have a 2 MP camera that only lets me as close as 6 inches. How do you post multiple pics in one thread?

My camera is currently disabled, but here are a few shots that I did last year that I liked alot... That stick in the first one is a toothpick...for scale.

Pic 1


Now here is a cool one... Any guesses how I got it to lie on it's back?

Pic 2

...and finally... this is Ursala, a Golden Orb Weaver that has since passed on.... The grey thing she is sitting on is a toilet paper roll cut in half long ways... It was also taken through the side of the jar I had her in.

Ursala


EDIT: Well... during the time that I worte this reply... Mr D had posted that it was limited to T pics.... I tire of those so feel free to delete this reply..... I was interested in the "macro" effect... not just more pics of tarantulas...

Go for it anyway and you can post multiple pics only if you have somewhere to host them. You can't attach more than one pic, but by using the "" tag, you can post as many as you want :)

Arachnojoost and Mr.T how the hell do you get those pics? What cameras r you using? do you take them through a sheet of glass or something so they cant attack the camera?

Mark,
I held that T for the picture. Got the lense about 1" away for it, and shot the pic... . But it took me alot of "trial and error" to learn this camera, and I'm still learning. I,ve taken a buttload of junker pictures. Its a Sony DSC-S85, John the Tarantulakeeper put me on to. He's got some super nice pics. in a album he showed me when I was buying some slings from him here in Phx.
