This orb / Amazing Circle made from a beautiful piece of fabric seen at The French Connection store in Pittsboro, North Carolina, USA.
For my husband, Ethan. He digs this sort of thing. I do too but he's got a big brain, you see, and can really appreciate the geometry in this. I see the blue base of those orbs and squeal with delight. Ethan studies each shape intently and can tell you why it's there and how it's shaped the way it is.
Another shot of an Orb weaver spider. The weld mesh steel behind is 50mm square. Gives some idea of the size of the spider.
Creating this beautiful orbs in Photoshop. Using a cropped of a garden sculpture that moves in the wind.
In Photoshop - just a few steps with a square cropped photo:
> Filter - Distort - Polar Coordinates - Polar to Rectangular - OK
> Image - Rotate Canvas - 180 degrees
> Filter - Distort - Polar Coordinates - Rectangular to Polar - OK
I sometimes create a layer to add a different color or texture background.
> Use the circular Elliptical Marquee tool on that new layer to make a circle around the original orb. Make the selection just inside the outside of the orb to give it a clean line.
> Select Inverse, then add your new color.
> Flatten image to save your new creation.
She's gone now. I guess the cold nights were too much for her and I didn't think I would ever say Anything like this about a spider, but I do miss her! She really was pretty and Always right there so when I passed by on the way to the barn I always looked to see what she was up to. Maybe her babies will be around next year. I hope so!
i will make some time tomorrow to catch up with Arachtober - I can see some amazing pictures in the pool

Golden orb spider taken at London Zoo’s spider house. . Shot on an Olympus E-PL3 with Pentax -M 100mm f4 macro lens
Couldn't believe how many were out in the garden yesterday.
Taken with the Laowa 85mm 2x macro and Godox ML 150 II flash.
These spiders were abundant in my parents gardens in QLD Australia. 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", hence the English name of the group. They are non venomous.
ive seen alot of these about on flickr but ive never tried one my self so here it is my first wool orb
really liked this tunnel so ill be down here a few more times i think :D

This is my Weather Orb/Ball. It is predicting fair weather. I set it on the dresser in my Art/Photography room and shot the photo with the neighbor's house in the Orb.
I've come to the conclusion that my resident golden orb lives upside down. I never see her any other way.
This Golden Orb Weaver spider is getting larger by the day as he catches (and digests) other insects in a massive web in our front garden.
this species has a rather unique eye arrangement like no other.
Even stranger, is its long snout. A very unusual feature indeed.
Perhaps it tells lies and suffer the same fate as Pinocchio.
All these extraordinary characteristics only come to light when this guy is examined under magnification.
I would not have noticed this guy if I have not caught it shifting location. This guy moves in a very unique manner sliding along the thread it has spin. It's the unusual fluid movement that caught my attention.
The surprise came when I was viewing the images on the monitor. The facial feature and eye arrangement (araneidae sp) is unlike anything I've seen before. Could its tiny size indicates that it's an immature ? since orb-web spiders are usually relatively larger. Hope someone could shed light on this critter
