The semi transparent one is fascinating, especially the semi-t vs black eyes.
Davidbowie's always impressive!

Your spider photos are spectacular! I especially like the beautiful yellow jumping spider. Very nice work.
The trouble with quick and dirty is that the dirty remains after the quick is gone.
