Thankyou Den. Yes, it seems the web is stronger than what one first believes. If you look closely you can actually see it being spun. I am so pleased you like this one.

Judi, it came out more than alright. I, too, feel that DOF is just fine. The little critter seems to be balancing on one leg, seven others in the air. Got to hand it to these spiders, I sometimes have trouble controlling only two legs!
You are indeed brave. What she won't do for a great photo... Kurt

I like it Judi. Think it's great. DOF and all that aside, I'm impressed by how it seems to be in mid air, almst as though it's jumping off the twig. Bits of web are just discernable. Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

I know the feeling Peter. Sometimes you can be lucky and get the shot first time, whilst other times...well!!
I honestly cannot remember the settings as this was taken back in May. About 5000 photos ago...LOL!!

To be honest Larry, I don't know what type of spider it is. We were staying with friends on their property that covered mountains on the coast. He took us 4WDriving and then a huge hike up and down incredible steep mountain sides. That and with three little children, was very difficult, so I couldn't take the tripod. So our friend held the stick up to where I could get good light and backdrop for me. So the fact that I didn't have a tripod and it was not a still object I was very lucky to get that shot. I had actually wanted the spiders legs to be more in focus. Oh well.
And yes, I am scared of spiders, but our friend was holding it.....not me!!!

Actually I like the DOF here allot, you got that little fellow in the centre of the focus, and btw, he could give a hand : ) he has many : ) I like this capture Judi, it seems like if it is walking on the air, very well done and keep up the good work, regards,

You're right it would be better a bit more sharpness, but it's good for me. The composition is great.

Quite nice indeed .. light came from the left apparently .. what was the shutterspeed and aperture ? Considering circumstances still a good capture ..
I was on a 4-hour walk in the wood last sunday, to photograph mushrooms .. well i can assure you: out of 150 pictures, i got 15 excellent ones ..
Regards, Peter
