Description
Well I went out today and took some photos. I saw this spider on the path to my pond and had to get a shot. So took a few and played with setting to get it to look ok with the little bit of light in the woods,lol. Hope you enjoy.

Great shot. This looks like what we used to call a banana spider when we were kids. They would usually build there webs across trails and scare the crap out of you when you encountered them. These things were about as big as the palm of your hand or bigger.
Just perfect shot! You should do it more...as I told before!!! Go out with camera...nature is always waiting for you!!!
Beautiful spider portrait. I always think about the times riding my mountain bike in the trails and run into a spider and web......lol. Excellent shot. Aloha
Very lovely spider! Great shot!
Tis a beautiful critter and you did an excellent job with your settings. This is a very nice photo.
Spiders kind-a creep me out but this is sure a beautiful one!!!!!! great catch!!!
Great shot, there are some interesting theories why they make the extra large web threads often zig zagged in shape, some think it is to deter birds from flying into them to ruin all the hard work
super work!!! excellently done!!! :)
this is nice, just started taking some macro shots myself, great!!!!
Marvelous work...that light coming in is just spectacular. Beautiful macro! Have an awesome day ~~()~~
Magnificent spiders, but I hate running into their webs. Have a few shots of my own of these. You did well with this big momma! :)
Perfect detail and lighting and very interesting to see how the Nephilia spiders differ in colour in your region.
