Super spider shot. I'm still trying to find something as nice as this.

Yea it's a orb weaver! (i'm sure you knew that already) And they don't take no for an answer. I have plenty of shots of them, I just love their webs especially after a heavy overnight dew. Paul

Well....... this one is about 5 mm in length. And a hard worker. Imagine making that web. Regards, Michael

You know as much as I hate spiders I am at the same time fascinated by them and shoot them (with the camera) whenever I find them. The exception is when I discover a brown recluse then I smash them to oblivion. Paul
