I think we can all understand well - it's not a probem!
My Czech isn't very good at all, so I'm happy!

In the wild: Nature Photography -- Macro and Close-up

From the refrigerator: Technical and Studio Photography -- Macro and Close-up

Both types are welcome.

I think Google Translate did a good job with this one.

Please do not worry. We understand Tomatito's joke, we appreciate your photography, and we will support you.

Language is only a little problem, and we can all use the stimulation of working past it.

Thank you for your patience. I wish I spoke all languages, but there is not enough time and my brain is not big enough... :(

I love jumping spiders too, sometimes I tried to refrigerate someone inside a 30x20 cm white poliexpan "container" with a blue-gel pharmaceutical cold bag inside and some natural substrate like a bark piece. Temperature is less than 10 ºC and little bugs slow his movements (and stop to jump!) for some time. water condensation sometimes occurs in eyes and is necessary wait for a minutes.... or take advantage of that and shot nice "artificial droplets" shots! :lol:

Cheers

Joaquim

Spectacular photos! I also love jumping spiders.

Thanks also for the cooling technique information. It sounds like a simple but reasonably effective technique.

I think these spiders are just fantastic... and live specimens wow!

Are the background colours a result of the stack process a kind of aberration thing or just colours in the background? Beautiful!

The backgrounds are colored objects behind the spiders. These pictures are shot in a sort of studio, so kvejlend can choose what makes them look good.

Kvelend,

How long does it take to decrease the activity of an bug or spider in a refrigerator (5 celsius) and if possible, could post a photo or video of the making-of photos showing how you mounted the background.

Thanks.
