Being my 1st photo post I thought I'd post a few pics which reflect my photographic interests.

Nice shots and welcome.

With the garnet shot there seems to be a 'glow' around the bird.... is this from postprocessing?

The eyes on the two spider shots are great!

cheers

For some reason I cannot view the first two pictures. All I have is the dreaded red crosses. :?

Awesome shots!! The first spider shot is particularly good in my opinion. I also love spider shots!!

I like the two spider shots the best. The garnett due to the 'halo' detracts a bit. Nice composition, and it suits B&W by the way :)

The spider shots almost show a kind of personality, the eyes are crisp and they are just plain good shots.

If these are you first posts, I can't wait to see the others!

Thanks for the comments, I might reprocess the garnet without the 'halo'. If I find the time. :?

That's better :D Yup love the spiders, but as others have said the pprominent halo on the bird does detract a little from the image.
