Here's some pics from my collection. I'm a long time collector and a newbie photographer but Michael (papilio) has been schooling me on macro photography for the last couple of months. I just want to give him a public shout out for his time and patience with me. I appreciate it man :worship:

I love these!!! Take more more more more.

Very nice, Michael has taught you well!
That is a very dark T. gigas, I like it, How big is it?

concrete · Feb 12, 2013

Thanks guys

CEC that tapi is about 2" and is not quite that dark in real life. You can chalk that one up on me still learning how to process shots properly.

Thanks Jan. She's a beautiful girl, definitely one of my favourites. I didn't get many shots as she was fresh from a molt and I didn't want to bug her too much. But I will be doing more soon enough

Awesome shots Mirza! You're getting an insane DOF! Keep them coming!

Storm76 · Feb 13, 2013

Lovely fluffball shots

I'm totally amazed by the excellence of your images ... especially having the patience to do 300-image focus stacks of slings!!

I wouldn't mind taking a little bit of credit for your successes but the truth is you've done this on your own.

Ah Michael class act all the way. I'd totally take credit for some of your shots! :biggrin:

This guy is growing like crazy! It almost seems like he doubles in size every molt. I had to relocate him to a bigger enclosure so I figured this was a good opportunity to get a few shots.

MarkmD · Feb 18, 2013

Really stunning pics and brilliant T collection, thanks for sharing.

CEC · Feb 18, 2013

Nice shots of the Ephebopus murinus, He is a very aesthetically pleasing T.

Storm76 · Feb 19, 2013

Beautiful E. murinus shots!

mcluskyisms · Feb 20, 2013

Nice photos and collection!

concrete · Mar 4, 2013

Thanks guys

This was an interesting shoot as I got to see this guys heartbeat very clearly at high magnification. He was freshly molted and his abdomen was slim enough for it to show really well. Pretty cool experience.

Poecilotheria regalis by Delibegovic, on Flickr

papilio · Mar 5, 2013

Very cool Mirza!

There have been quite a few times when, flipping through the images of a stack, I see the hairs twitch back and forth ... not only back where the heart is after a recent molt but even up on the carapace long after it's molted! Kinda freaky. lol

April's Pamphobeteus sp. 'platyomma' MM was moving his front whiskers all over the place!
