Today I'd like to share with you this black and white version of a cellar spider that I shot last year. I had taken a number of stacks of this particular spider and have only just go round to processing this stack and thought it would be interesting to process as black and white. I hope you like it.
If you would like to know more about how I create my macro images and would like to try focus stacking yourself then please take a look at my tutorial, see links below
