Last time I am going up on that roof in a force 4!

A gorgeous orb weaver spider (iNat suggests Alpaida sp.) in Brazil. Seen resting on a leaf during the day in fairly thick brush, waiting for dusk to begin building a web. A cool little detail is the pair of small spines, one on either side of the thick part of the abdomen. There is also a sparse scaffolding of silk on the leaf, probably to help the spider hold on.
Queen B wears the Black Bird Society gown (borrowed from Nina-chan) with a Ilaria OOAK hard cap wig.
Inque wears Blodhound pieces mixed with Slippers lingerie and a Ilaria OOAK hard cap wig.
My new girl Raja wears Orb dress combined with the inside out Love skirt as a mermaidtail and the restyled Swallow wig.
My new girl Raja wears emiliacouture Oneirophenia with hose and shoes from Sybarite Cross, and a mohair wig.
I believe this tiny spider is a mature male Hypsosinga sp., but I hope someone can confirm that. Observed at a bioblitz in Corral Bluffs Open Space on the high plains just east of Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. June 8, 2019.
I just love the orbs of light that these raindrops become on an overcast day. It's all about the light.

This 'amazing circle' or orb was created from a photo I shot of trumpet flowers at the Biltmore Estates gardens in Asheville, North Carolina, USA.

Orb weaver spinning a web. I watch this spider put out a web each evening as the sun goes down and then take it down in the morning.
It were not best that we should all think alike; it is difference of opinion that makes horse races.

THANKS EVERYONE, all faves are much appreciated! Oldest duplicate group-logo comments are deleted.
From my garden last night, my best guess is that this is a male (because of the large palps) Neoscona crucifera orb weaver. You typically just see females, which are larger and rounder. They make a new, often quite large, web each night, and then recycle (eat) the web the next morning. (Around our house we humorously call them "head-jumpers," because if you wander out of the house first thing in the morning this time of year, it's easy to walk face-first into last night's web that wasn't there the day before.) From what I've read, the males often don't make webs, and actually cannot once they are sexually mature -- they then wander off to find females, who usually stay in one general area. Maybe that's why today, his web is still in place, unrecycled, and the spider is nowhere to be seen; maybe he molted and is now mature, and on the road looking for love? In any case, they're common but definitely cool-looking spiders.

I had previously shot this scene in the past, but curiosity got the best of me, to try for the first time adding the orb thru light painting. I was happy to get the Orb, Arch Rock and the Milky Way together as planned, and it was fun doing this!!!!
Thank you for viewing.

Was out for 4 hours tonight, and have a fair few more that I need to download. Would have felt bad if I had not got 1 straight onto Flickr though!

Web-anchored to the side of a screen meant to hide humans from birds is this glorious golden orb weaving spider, Nephila plumipes. That's too obvious! I've used the singular because she is so obvious — the smaller male above her is less so. Is she not beautiful?
Do not be alarmed. Neither big, nor scary, she is mostly harmless. I wouldn't say that if I was on her menu. But I'm not. At most, wandering into her web might cause you minor annoyance. Look at it from her point of view — home wrecker!
More goofing around with extreme blur. It's fun abstracting with blur but after a while I find I have trouble composing regular non-blurred shots!
All comments, critiques and feedback both positive and negative welcome.
Obviously inspired by Brooke and her white orbs.
I should just work with my concepts OUTSIDE. But living in the city makes it hard. I don't drive, and I just can't wander about with a thousand props all by myself.
I hope once I'm in sydney I won't be too scared of spiders to be able to shoot on their beautiful locations.
Anyone from Australia out there? :)

Spun by me. Better than the ones I usually spin.
I probably absorbed a little of Chris's talent by some sort of osmosis-like process. Come to think of it, I did spin this with one of his magic orb-making rigs. The beer may have helped, too. Thanks, New Belgium!
