It's kind of sad that most of the photos I took that day are not usable because the subjects are not visible. Even today, that I had to choose the fifth and sixth photo, I tried hard to find suitable ones. Anyway, I think that I managed something at the end. We begin with a beautiful tarantula.

A lot of light, especially on the rocks on the bottom of the picture. Still, the spider is visible, but not in a satisfactory way. |
|
Contrast and Curves to the rescue (Curves is a setting for manipulating colours in photo-editing software). The burned parts of the rocks weren't saved, but the background is sort of better now. I don't know exactly how a DSLR could save the day here, but that's what I'm trying to learn. |

This one is called Grue de Paradis. |

And this is Grue de Paradis with some editing that shows how important correct lighting is for a photo in the first place. |
In other news, we now have a
Facebook page, so that we can enjoy new photos straight in our feed. Lucky, lucky us!
