Got out and did a little hunting this afternoon. Found a few Orb Weaver Spiders. Two of them had captured some prey and the other was just sitting there.

All shot with Canon T2i, Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro, 31mm extension tube, Canon MT-24EX Macro Twin Lites (both heads half power), tripod on the first two and handheld on the last, EXIF embedded.

As always thanks for looking and let me know what you think.

Oh and I almost forgot. Gig'em Lady Aggies Basketball team. Playing for the National Championship tonight.

good shots, like compositions.

light looks quite flat and dull for some reason, try levels adjustment to brighten highlights, darken shadows

the second 2 look like crab spiders, not orb webs

Good captures- agree with Phil think they are all crab spiders
