Still lovin it!

Originally I was going to take some photos of birds at my backyard, but before I found any bird to shoot, I found this cool spider. (Anyone know what type of spider is this or whats it’s name?) Then I quickly went into my house to change my lens, and grab my macro flash. Luckily I am fast enough before the spider went somewhere else.  I picked up the little purple flower where the spider is on, and took photos of the spider single handedly since I’m holding my subject on the other. I think the flash is very important for handheld macro shot, it freezes the subject and thus I can get a sharp photo. 🙂 It’s been awhile since the last time I shot macros, but after getting this photo, I can say Im still loving it. 😀
