Spidow

On another site the prompt this week is be out of your comfort zone and here it is distortion so I've combined the prompts.

I'm not keen on spiders, especially only 50mm lens distance! I've used the spherical tool to distort this making the spider larger and me look braver!

Wow, amazing details.

[Annie-Sue]

You have also used the "hairy legs" tool!

What a perfect Halloween image! He definitely looks bigger and the detail is amazing. FAV

[Jacqueline]

Good heavens that spider is humongous!

[Shutterbug]

The good news about a humongous spider is that you can see it to avoid it with anything less than a 50mm lens. Great capture.

[haskar]

Great composition and details.

[Mags]

Wow! Fabulous macro!

[Babs]

Amazing detail, I quite like spiders unless of course I wander into a web at night in the garden. Some of our spiders are huge and it gives you quite a shock as you hear the crackle of a web against your face.

[LManning (Laura)]

Fab details and I love the shadow.

[amyK]

[Kathy A]

[Petespost]

[Susan Wakely]

I love my 50mm prime lens! Had no idea it could get such sharp details! I also didn't know these spiders are so hairy!!!

Thank you to not objecting to such a disconcerting image on your feed and your lovely comments about it x
