    About 1-1/2" + across. Needless to say I don't go walking into that part of the patio in the dark

    Everything I tried with the flash made the web fun but would wash Fred out badly.

    I too had a hard time shooting a spider and not overexposing it, while still showing the web. Harder than it looks.

    Obviously, now I need to try it with two flashlights. One for Fred and one for the web
