Hello friends,
another shot from this series. I decided to get another step closer. These spiders build their nets about 20, maximum 30cm over ground. They never build it vertical, always slightly tilted. And they sit never on the upper side. ALWAYS under the net. And ALWAYS head down. My back is still aching.

C and C welcome,
thanks for looking

I prefer the previous image, it is nice to see the head and it is pinsharp, however i find the o.o.f top bit a bit distracting.

Hi Bertl,
It's a fine effort. OoF abdomen does not bother me. I really like the hairs on the legs! Pin sharp with a nice composition, well worth getting back ache for!!
Regards
Rob

Superb detail in the legs. Go on take a chance with focus stacking.
