This is coming a little late, but if I had to guess what that plane was I'd have to say by the size of the wing, and paint scheme, its probably an old C-47/DC-3
One of the better "Duck Photos" I've seen in a long while. Excellent use of that thin DOF to isolate the color and detail on the head. Nice work.

While going on a midnight trek looking for nocturnal insects, we disturbed this medium size (5 inch) spider. As you can see, it doesn't look too pleased!

Pea soup this Sunday morning.....C&C and how to treat fog in a "good way" for this shot appreciated.
It was about 9:40am, so really had a blue-cast to the fog not an early morning grey-cast.
ok- I'm willing to learn, point me to Levels/Histogram 101 link/book.
When I hit "auto" in levels it give me a grey/washed image, not my memory exactly.

Very nice, awesome detail.
Just curious how close were you with that macro lens?
Do they jump when "not too pleased"?

Thanks! I honestly wasn't too close, around 2 feet, maybe? I only had a couple of seconds to take the shot, and I didn't actually see how close I was. I was far from 1:1, I can tell you that. This is the original, uncropped image. A 1:1 shot would have been the front part of the cephalothorax (pretty much the picture I posted, only not cropped).
These (family Araneidae) don't jump, generally. We just happened to mess up its web, and it hurried to fix it.

I literally got chills as I scrolled to this entire photo. It's scary good, pun intended.

This is an excellent photo. Better than most of the ones I found while trying to find out what it was. You should submit this to one of the spider identification sites. My best guess is Eriophora ravilla based on the link below. It was hard to find one that size, though. They grow big in the tropics.

PS: Relax, folks, it's related to that garden spider in your backyard...only bigger...
