Photographer Nicky Bay has captured through his amazing macro lens, incredible and gorgeous details of insects around his home in Singapore and other places around the world. For the past few years, Bay has documented the remarkable mirror spider, a unique arachnid with reflective plates on its abdomen that increase or diminish in size depending on the threat level. Bay has also travelled to South America to photograph the insects of the Amazon and more locally, put together a wonderful collage of the native huntsman spider to celebrate the 51st anniversary of Singapore on August 9, 2016.

Presenting the amazing insects, spiders and other micro fauna from Singapore and around the world using constantly evolving macro photography techniques.
