Death from Above - _TNY_1842

This female European garden spider (Araneus diadematus), with a bit darker colour than typical has built here web on a large mallow in our garden.

 

Typically she hides above the web underneath a leaf and would be invisible if you don’t notice the web, but by poking her a little I got her to change position (and side of the web) to be out in the open.

 

Then I got on my back on the lawn under the plant and shot upwards which turned out great if I may say so myself.
