Dave: is this spider with web or web with spider?

[Ndukes]

Nice one Brian. I love the way the web fills the frame and the spider seems to almost fill the web.

That's because I left and cropped out about 2/3 of the web. it's a big web.

[Dave Humphries]

Oh, I think that qualifies as a "web with a spider" Brian

You've done well to capture so much well lit web, with much of it sharp, too.

[Stagecoach]

Surely a "web with a spider" suggests the spider has been captured

A good one Brian, and great example of an exercise where getting the camera to subject plane right is a challenge.

[Shadowman]

Nice catch.

Excellent image

I got lucky with wind the height and the angle of the sun. plus i had recently cleaned my lens.

[JBW]

Nice catch.

I have been walking past him for a few days now waiting for the right conditions.

he was, by my camera! Not really a challenge as much as serendipity. His web and my tripod predicated the angle of the dangle.

Spider with web because the spider stands out beautifully. Albeit the web is also well captured.

[bnnrcn]

A very good one Brian

Not the original World Wide Web surely!

good thing I put in two titles

[JBW]

Not the original World Wide Web surely!

I have measured these webs at up to 4 meters anchor point to anchor point. I have also seen these spiders catch and eat Swallow sized birds. So possibly not the original www but not too shabby.

[JBW]

A very good one Brian

Can you imagine walking into that in the middle of the night?

Nice capture Brian, you certainly have some very interesting subjects around your neck of the woods.

I try not to imagine it. We have lived here for 15 years (give or take) and we still once or twice a month find something in our garden/temple that we haven't seen before.

Nice capture...

[JBW]

Nice capture...

today the sun has been shining through a different web showing off the golden colour of spiders web. Sadly with my equipment and skills it was not capturable.
