 i sat down in the clover outside our house intending to see if i could photograph some insects for our macro side challenge and noticed this 'thing' on my leg which turned out to be this incredibly small spider .. i couldnt tell it was a spider till i looked at it thru the 100mm lens .
i got a few shots with just the 100mm and when looking at them after downloading i saw that he was eating an even smaller bug which appeared to be giving birth to a maggot while being eaten .. the spider would'v been smaller than a match head ..
the whitish threads in front of the spider are the material of my pants which are a tight weave which might give you an idea of his size ..
i've scaled him up 200% then added another photograph of leaves and sticks in difference blending mode and then a texture by NinianLif

I'm not so sure about the process you took to make this. I'm more of a leave it alone type of photographer. But I really like this, it looks like it could easily be on the poster for a movie, or the cover of a book. Nicely processed.
