Arabesque Orb Weaver

[HansE]

Looks like they fed it some LSD. They showed a comparison years ago of a web built by a spider fed on LSD and one not. Looked like your web Looks much like the Golden Orb Weavers I get around here in NSW

Well photo's. We get these here in UK too at this time of year. They are so picturesque, and all spiders are fun....:-))

Very nice, the 100mm L Macro is a sweet lens and you`re using it well, I`ll have to dust mine off this weekend and take it for a walk.

When I had my old camera and I had a Macro lens I use to go into the back yard and found spiders like this and took their shots.
I do miss this side of things and enjoy looking at this shot.

What Alan said David. I'm sure they can afford to lose a leg now and then, we get by with just two!

Beautiful colours in the spider and background David. Nice and sharp too.

Spotted this guy sitting just off of the hiking trail this morning. Appears to be missing a leg.
