No - that's just the maximum aperture of the lens. This one was taken at f/10. In macro as I'm thinking you'll already know, the area in focus using extension tubes on a full frame camera can be as little as 2mm or 3mm at most.

This is one of my favourite macro shots taken quite a few years ago with my old D50 & excellent Nikkor 60mm F/2.8 macro lens. The front of the tree stump is a little distracting, and I did boost the colour a little, but the bug is/was very, very green.
A shame he wasn't blue!
Good capture though m8.

Ah, I just saw f/2.8 and thought you were wide open.
Hmm, then the f/10 should really have gotten them both in focus.; weird, as you said.

Harry Seidler was a famous Aussie Architect who designed alot of modernist buildings from the 50's to the 90's.
This is his Apartment design in Darlinghurst.
And on the job I'm on I've been lucky enough to shoot in his house. Its basically the Aussie version of 'Fallingwater' by Frank Lloyd Wright, and its an amazing home.

Opiliones are known better as harvestmen - those spider-like thingies which are not spiders at all. The body of a harvestman is so characteristic that they are easy to recognize. They go by many names: daddy long-legs, harvestmen, shepherd spiders, and harvest spiders. These eight-legged arachnids are commonly misidentified as spiders, they actually belong to their own, separate group – the order Opiliones.
They are awkward to photograph mainly due to their legs being incredibly long - as much as 2 inches each one, which means to fit one into the viewfinder in its entirety leads to poorer composition - hence I tend to get in closer and concentrate on the best bit - the body and those 2 little eyes and it's mouth parts!
Anyway, here is one such harvestman, posing quite nicely for me on a chrysanthemum flower. Enjoy.
