Shamata Banerjee

Hi. My name is Shamata Banerjee, a small town girl from Berhampore, Murshidabad. From childhood, I was a photography enthusiast. This hobby started to capture my mind fully when I saw my father travelling and capturing beautiful picturesque view of snow covered mountains. So I got my first Sony Cyber-shot as a reward after 12th. Not to mention I knew nothing about photography at that time but started learning from my father. After 3 years, we went to visit Jaldapara Sanctuary, and voila! My camera got broken due to an accident. Then after completing my bachelor’s degree, I got my first DSLR, Nikon d5100. It was completely a new world, a new beginning, and I started to capture landscapes, portraits, nature etc. but after some days, the “macro” world caught my attention. I started experimenting with reverse macro, macro filters and many more things, and then Tamron 90 mm. Till now I’m using this setup and someday I plan to travel the whole world and bring those hidden tiny beauties in front of everyone. Thanks to WeekendTrivia for giving me a chance to share my experience. This picture was a result of one of my experiments with reverse macro with 18-55 m. We see these spiders every day but believe me, they are very good posers too!!

Hi, I am Ripan Biswas from Coochbehar , an Award winning Nature and wildlife photographer, specialised in macro photography… In this picture, I have captured close up of a jumping spider. Jumping spiders have large eyes to see and find preys from a distance. they can jump several times than their body length. This is why they are more interestingly known as known as the jumping spider.
