I sure do like the sharpness of the spider and your ability to catch a few of the threads.

What a great capture, Sandy! Timing is everything! These guys (orb weavers, I believe) make very solid webs. I've seen classic ones and some zig-zag crazy webs...I'm sure they know what and why they're doing it! I watched one in side yard weave a web that had to be 3 ft wide. Then the garden guy hosed it down with heavy water. I'm impressed with this image....very interesting critters.

Hi Sandy,
Nice pose with all of those silk threads tack sharp. I like the hind leg that's holding some of the web steady. Excellent job at getting this shot..........................Jim

Nice and sharp and i like the way you have included the leaves, giving it a sense of place. One (I) would usually isolate the spider. This is a nice piece of work you have done
