Sharp picture of this very beautiful spider.
Nice to find it on a white wall. Till now I have only found them sitting in the middle of their web between dense grass and corn which made it difficult to photograph from the top. Posted 13 years ago

I'll wear protective clothing next time I visit:) Wow, great detail, never noticed those before. And that on a wall so contrasty, nice! Shame you didn't have your DSLRS at the ready:) Posted 13 years ago, modified 13 years ago
