My dad is very into his photography, he has a Canon Digital EOS Rebel, whichever is the newest 8.1 megapixel model (he traded in his 6.3 when the new came out haha). Anyways, he just showed me this today after he found out I was getting a tarantula, a guys gallary with some macro spider shots. If you go out to the main gallaries there is a bunch of cool other insects and stuff as well.

*edit. just wanted to add, I saw a thread with very similar jumping spider pics, those things are neat :)

Thoes are the weirdest looking creature things i've ever seen.... I havnt seen much more than the household daddy longlegs before this.. they're so alien! i think before another T, i'm gonna pick up one of thoes just to watch in my spare time:D

Edit - the idea of "micro" gallery just dawned on me. i supposed i wont be doing much watching without a magnifying glass :?

Fabulous photos! I was espescially impressed with the dragonflies. Species names would be a nice addition to the photos.

yeah names would be good. Unless he doesnt know the names if he was taking the pics in the 'wild'? He may not know much about the subjects of his photos, I have no idea. Though he does seem to have some interest in them so he may know and just did not include them in the gallary.
I like the pic of the one spider with the molt right next to it, looks in mid air too?
