Re: Spider Belly

Very nice! We have the same species of spider. It is so amazing how they can make this small orb web across the cup of a curled leaf. =D> Mark Sturtevant Dept. of Still Waters Thanks Mark, The little guy has been in the same plant in different leaves for many weeks. It is an interesting web strategy.

Re: Spider Belly

Thanks Rik…I have only used Zerene as a stereo preview guide to make sure the frames were arranged correctly left to right. I will try it out as a high rez stereo viewer.

Re: Spider Belly

The stereo is clean & vivid -- very nice! I am curious about technique. The reflections at lower right have some differences that are not typical for synthetic stereo.

Re: Mixed Medley Macro

The remains of a meal is visible in the upper left hand side of the frame. Spec...

Monarch Butterfly Egg

I have longed to find a butterfly egg but only found the eggs of other critters until last week. During a park outing one turned up on the backside of a milkweed leaf. An iPhone photo had sufficient detail to determine that it was a single egg laid on its end in typical butterfly fashion. There was ...
