	Nice spiders, but to me, the water droplets really make the picture. Kevin also shares his technique and elaborate setup for shooting the macro images - the important point being the use of extension tubes to obtain the huge magnification.	Nikkor 35-70mm f/3.3-4.5 AF Kenko DG extension tube set
	Very nice indoor basketball series by Brad Waldera - view larger images and technique used here and here. Brad put the Nikon D50 in Manual Mode, f/1.8 aperture, AF-C (continuous Autofucs), 1/400 sec., 800 ISO, Matrix Metering, Dynamic Focus, and Auto White Balance. No flash was used. I like his monochrome postprocessing too. He shot the images in RAW mode, used Photoshop Elements 5 and the plug in "Virtual Photographer" by OpticVerve Labs for the effects (source). Visit Brad's gallery for more of his work.	Nikkor 85mm f/1.8D AF
	You're going to be seeing a fair bit of macro work from our pal, Kevin. Here's a recent series on a hapless preying mantis.	Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro
