Know the behaviour

It is important to know the profile and the behavior of the object of our macro photo. Spiders generally have a vision that is not so good, can not distinguish colors, or just sensitive to light and dark. To mark the presence of animals or other objects usually rely spider vibration, both in silk webs or on land, water, or the place they occupy. Some spiders are able to taste the difference in air pressure. Sense of touch a spider is located on the hairs on his leg.

When we want to create a macro photo with the object of the spider, remember to always move slowly, keep enough distance and adjust the breath in such a manner until all of our movement will be minimal movement.
