8 Legged Surprises

The good thing about finding a spider in the bathroom sink is that it can't get away. The steep porcelain sides are too slippery even for a spider. Another good thing is that it's a plain background. And finally, if you use a flash, the white makes a good reflector. And you probably need a flash because there's not a lot of light in bathrooms, especially first thing in the morning.

The EM-1 comes with a tiny little external flash that doesn't have its own batteries, just uses the ones in the camera. It's perfect for this kind of thing.

PS. No spiders were hurt during the making of this photograph. I put it outside after its portrait session.
