I recieved a very nice package today from lars butcher today, he is among us here on the boards and if you have delt with him in the past you know he takes care of you when it comes to this hobby and ordering T's. I ordered a bunch of T's from him and during it all lars was having some trouble with his computer......anyway to make a long story short I recieved all my T's and a bunch of freebies. All beauty's and healthy as can be. I snapped a few photos of two actual T's and the whole group....Thanx again lars!

You're doing right. Just stick with manual and have a play around. Something doesn't work just delete it and see what needs to be done.

I still end up deleting far more pics than what I get that are usable.

 

[Stracs-arachs]

Hard to tell while shooting for sure. I really do enkoy it though.

 

[Stracs-arachs]

What lens

Lens Nikon Nikkor
28-105 MM
1:3.5 - 4.5 D

 

[Stracs-arachs]

Well, definitely getting better with the new lens. Any pointers I all ears! Enjoy-Joe

Great!
I wonder if that spider would sit still long enough for you to do focus stacking to get the whole carapace sharp, but I like this photo just as taken.
Nice job!

It’s possible- my friend does focus stacking with jumpers and Ts

Not sure what focus stacking is but Im googling now. Ty

Don't over saturate your images. That looks like around +50 of saturation. If you are going to saturate, layer mask the image from the background so at least the background stays in normal tonal ranges

multiple images shot at different focus settings and merged. Common in product photography. If the spider moves, yer hosed

Thank you. Im a newb with the photography so not sure how to do that all yet.
