Basilica Orbweaver on its Web

Better in large.

I've seen these spiders from other blippers and really been intrigued by them. We don't seem to have them in my area... At least not that I've seen. So, when I found one down here at my parent's home, I was pretty excited and wanted to get a wonderful shot of one...

Oh boy! What a challenge! 1) All of the webs were in shadowy places. 2) It was impossible to get everything in focus with a narrow DOF, yet you needed the magnification of a macro lens... And 3) Did I mention that the web moves like mad in the slightest of breezes...

Anyway, this was the best of the bunch and over all not bad. But, given time, I think I could do better.

Blipmeet tomorrow! :))))
