This one got a standby position which looks like a warship from space.

The spiders were out in force today in the garden, having a feed from last night

A spider and its prey, on a leaf. Not sure what type of spider this is - it was very tiny, about 3 mm in length. From Oslo, Norway.

Image taken using a Raynox DCR-250 macro converter.

Hiding underneath the leaves

The fly (a Sarcophaga carnaria) was over twice as big as the spider (an Araneus diadematus) but that didn't seem to bother the spider much.

I was pretty impressed by the way this harvestman spider split his legs to fall on the three petals of the clover leaf he was resting on. May 2013

I'm upping this because it disturbs me that a spider's leg looks completely empty. I posit that they don't need muscles because they are animated by the dark lord Sauron.

This fella has been guarding my stairway the past several days. I need to be careful that I don't accidentally step on him. He did get a bit excited when I shined a bright light on him to take his photo, but has since calmed down.

This is the best spider photo I've taken yet, but Thomas Shahan has no competition from me. ;-) His spider macros are absolutely splendid!

used a 100mm macro and a reversed 50mm

Calentita esta foto. Estoy muy contento con ella pq no la trate para nada, sólo le pase un filtro de tratamiento para entrada de RAW y listo ni saturación ni contraste, nada de nada, y me gusta el resultado final. La araña era ínfima, unos 4-5mm de longitud. Me llamo la atención la luz pasando a través de la hoja y el color que daba y por eso decidí sacar la foto. La titule nervio, pq a pesar de que la araña es el protagonista, creo que los nervios de la hoja es la que le da el carácter final a la misma.

that butt looks heavy
