Without seeing the issue I cant say for sure but most likely you are underexposing the photo because the camera's exposure metering is saying the scene is too bright, cameras are not smart enough to work out that a scene is meant to be white, it simply "sees" too much white and automatically determines the scene is too bright. A camera's metering looks at an image and based on percentages it works out how much whites (highlights), blacks (shadows), and mid tones (everything else in between) there are and this is how it calculates if a scene is under or over exposed. Most of the time this metering is correct but when we shoot scenes with a lot of white or black the metering is actually incorrect and you have to compensate for it. Photographers that shoot in snow are well used to dealing with this issue .cute little spiders. I often have a problem when I shoot a subject with white background. Yours are very good.

Photographers that shoot in snow are well used to dealing with this issue .nataliaflejszar&Photo, do you have to deal with wrong exposure metering much ?.
Anyways I hope this helps your issue, otherwise I'd like to see what results you are getting and maybe give you a hand fixing it.
Yup, this is almost definitely it. I have the same issue with snowy scenes and birds with sky in the background. Adjusting exposure compensation by a stop or two usually does the trick, but sometimes even that isn't enough.Without seeing the issue I cant say for sure but most likely you are underexposing the photo because the camera's exposure metering is saying the scene is too bright, cameras are not smart enough to work out that a scene is meant to be white, it simply "sees" too much white and automatically determines the scene is too bright.

So great ! It's very beautiful composition! I love to watching macro photos like thisHi,
Haven't shot much macro while I play with my new lens, but I did have the chance to shoot some macro a couple of weeks ago to test a diffuser which I made recently. Here is a spider I shot at a botanical park on day of shooting at Daylesford, Victoria. Hope you like it.
