Photographer's Notes
Magnification is approximately 4x lifesize hence the shallow depth of field (measured in millimeters even at f22. Why does physics have to spoil photography eh? :)

 2/9/2008 5:13:04 PM		Shallow DOF is part-and-parcel of macro shots, I fear. However, I don't think this is "spoiled" at all. I love the vivid contrast of the white spider agains the purple flower (? -- it is a flower, right?). I am very amused by the eyes in particular, especially the outer two with the almost comic yellow bits.
