  1. Beatuifully captured! What is the zigzag pattern in the web, between its legs? Almost looks like capturing something in motion. Well shot! Indeed it is spider time in Weert:) I caught a few in my hair, and that means a lot 'cause I have so little of it:)
    Gratz on the promotion!

    1. Thanks Ludo for the promotion! These type of spiders always have a zigzag pattern in the web on that spot I noticed. Don't know why... Posted 10 years ago
      1. I was hoping you would know. I recently photographed a similar thing and was wondering about this. Posted 10 years ago
