The spider built a star at the centre of this web. Shallow depth of field created by f/1.4. I changed it to cyanotype because it was a riot of colors. I'll post the original later.

Ich war vor einigen Wochen vor Sonnenaufgang öfter an der Ruhr.. dort ist mir diese Spinne in Ihrem Netz aufgefallen.. Wollte schon länger mal ein solches Bild machen.. was bei Sonnenaufgang passierte, seht ihr die Tage :-)

To my english speaking followers: should I translate the text under my images?

It's all about careful planning and of course location, location,location in order to trap a descent meal !!!!!

Pushing on that trigger is like pulling magic into my very soul...Darrell.

More experimentation with backing up my lense

This web belongs (belonged) to a Spiny Orb Weaver spider. I say belonged because after a couple of weeks I finally reached a day where I forgot to duck and that was the end of that one! Happy to say she did rebuild ... and she IS in the middle in the shot, the camera just didn't want to focus on her. :)

Happy Web Wednesday! Have a great day folks ;0)

Beginning of the change of season

A spider web on our house that was coated with the morning dew.

Just regret not having my macro lens with me, wet by the morning dew this web looked as if it were adorned by pearl beads. Enlarge the picture to see better detail.

Arachtober 03

The spider seems to have woven a new web outside our kitchen window. The double-paned window had been cleaned inside, but not outside. (The blurry dark vertical lines are the balusters supporting the railing around the deck.)

At the moment that I snapped this, the wind was causing the web to dance vigorously. When I looked at the image on the computer, I was surprised that the filaments had as much definition as they do.

This Web was trashed when this Hornet flew into it to steal this lunch! The Artist of the web came down to see off the intruder, took one look at the Hornet and quickly retreated up and out of the way! Once the Hornet had worked it's lunch free it flew off with it. Fascinating to watch. HWW
