The Nephila pilipes

Itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the waterspout;
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out;
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain;
And the itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again.

(wow, beauty in repetition, as the weave itself shows so marvellously)

    Never saw these myself. Wow beautiful, though still a spider (I find these critters a bit scary:)) Beautiful capture, that is for sure. Love your fuzzy background and crispness of the subject. Posted 11 years ago

      Those are the rain drops actually, there was slight drizzling. Yes, it did create some difficulty in capturing. Posted 11 years ago
