Walnut Orb Spiders - close up and wider views...

Paul Iddon

On the fence tonight, and on the bird table in the garden, there are 3 Walnut Orb spiders strutting their stuff.

First is as close as I could get to the female on the fence - this was at 2:1 on the Venus 60mm lens, using a torch to illuminate the subject due to being so close, with a ringflash doing the rest. She is then shown further back. Then the other two are a male and a female on the bird table - perhaps these two may one day make lots of baby orbs...

Enjoys the fangs on Number 1...

Fine macros. May be no. 1 is so close-up that you miss the motive
