This little guy made a web on my front porch last night (I saw him making it), and I took this shot this morning before going to work. I actually took a lot of shots, but almost all of them were blurry. This one and one other were nice and sharp.
Post processing: crop, convert to black and white, auto levels, levels, dodge darker areas of spider, neat image, resize, unsharp mask, save for web. |

The web showed up real well in the picture, but the spider didn't. I don't see too much detail, perhaps because of the backlighting. |

i like the backlighting on this spider, it enhances the web and makes this very interesting... |

I don't know if the B/W adds to this. there needs to be more contrast for the subject to really pop out at me. Perhaps in color it would've... Still, its a great capture. |

nice shot ... I think there is too much empty space on the right but, that is my taste in composition. |
