Herb Robert / Opportunistic Spider

Click image to view a bigger version

Went for a quick wander in the woods to see if I could catch the last few rays of sun on the bluebells. That was moderately successful, but I preferred this one.
I gave it a little bit of help with a mini cube LED light with a snoot fitted, which I think quite nicely mimicked a gentle sunbeam, and just lifted the subject out from the background a bit more.

The spider in the second picture (after the jump) isn't in perfect focus in quite the right place, but I was reasonably happy with it for a very opportunistically grabbed shot. Again, I gave the beastie a bit of light from the LED cube, as it was rather dim in the undergrowth.
