I really like the effect of back and side lighting and when you combine this with beautiful women, the effect can be stunning. Enjoy. :thumb113295643: :thumb111998321: :thumb111766341: :thumb61397138: :thumb108084275:  :thumb106494774: :thumb31277844:  :thumb105200414:   :thumb78397255: :thumb63828942: :thumb82841321: :thumb71109180::thumb50656040: :thumb117854053:  :thumb132829814: :thumb128219022: :thumb122387694: :thumb94767034: :thumb130296639: :thumb128477784:  :thumb119807146:  :thumb117210808: :thumb80061197:

I've always had a love of boats - not that I've spent much time on the water, but I like small boats on a beach. Here is a small collection of some great boat shots. :thumb44263423: :thumb61643612: :thumb21368392: :thumb96139378: :thumb20459708: :thumb119003113: :thumb19773505: :thumb21319879: :thumb79695931: :thumb72613993: :thumb111547651: :thumb67617700: :thumb48687758: :thumb93931745: :thumb56596563: :thumb86283744: :thumb93705085: :thumb43759771: :thumb43760696: :thumb43759443: :thumb87345790: :thumb98928227: :thumb96120006: :thumb124550433:

This is a feature journal on one of my favourite spiders, the jumping spiders(Salticidae). Most of these ones I have no idea of their technical name, but they are always fun to photograph because they invariably jump onto the lens while I am trying to get a good shot of them. They are intelligent and will bend their body to see what you are doing. This first group are from Tasmania. :thumb120755425: :thumb120753957: :thumb118738339: :thumb117908521: :thumb102937022: :thumb102424611: :thumb101524563: :thumb74340540: :thumb99154957: :thumb98363682: :thumb78280239: :thumb74340469: :thumb74404423: This is what so often happens.
