Orb-weaver spiders or araneids are members of the spider family Araneidae. They are the most common group of builders of spiral wheel-shaped webs often found in gardens, fields and forests. "Orb" was previously used in English to mean "circular",[2] hence the English name of the group. Araneids have eight similar eyes, hairy or spiny legs, and no stridulating organs.[1]
The family is cosmopolitan, including many well-known large or brightly colored garden spiders. With around 3,100 species in 169 genera worldwide, Araneidae is the third-largest family of spiders (behind Salticidae and Linyphiidae).[1] Araneid webs are constructed in a stereotyped fashion. A framework of nonsticky silk is built up before the spider adds a final spiral of silk covered in sticky droplets.
Orb-webs are also produced by members of other spider families. The large golden orb-weavers (Nephilidae) and the long-jawed orb weavers (Tetragnathidae) were formerly included in the Araneidae; they are closely related, being part of the superfamily Araneoidea. The cribellate or hackled orb-weavers (Uloboridae) belong to a different group of spiders. Their webs are strikingly similar, but use a different kind of sticky silk.

It’s been ages since I made one of these orbs, so I thought I’d have a play around with one of my photos of the heather on the moors taken a few weeks ago. Once you start with these things they become a little bit addictive !
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
Tidied up the cupboard and got rid of old stuff. Took a photo and it looked rather boring so made an orb. HSS!

Head to my Instagram @138shadowpeople to get in my contest for a print. Today's Lightpainting, a tree with embers coming off it, and a strange orb. Go set the world on fire. I used lens cap trick. I shot the tree and ridge put the cap on and went 180 to get some houselights down the hill and the balls in.
Seems to be my favorite subject it seems these days, but there sure are a lot of these little orb weaver spiders around at every turn... this one was above me and I found it fascinating to be able to see how translucent and delicate she was against the sun rays...

In spirituality, green is the color of the anahata or heart chakra. It is also the color of nature. Green orbs can reveal the presence of a human soul/spirit. Green orbs symbolize a spirit that is one with nature and love.
