Thanks for the kind words. The spider was hanging between two trash-cans and was sitting perfectly still. It was pure coincidence and luck I guess that the sunlight lighted it so good for me.
I didn't use any macro lens, infact the lens of my F717 was so close, I thought that a little breeze would blow the spider right against it.
Looks like mine but taken at day time. How did you get it to display itself during the day. They normally hide away from the birds etc. Very nice detailed shot.
