I'm new to macro shooting, but I saw this Orb Weaver and had to take a picture.   The egg sac was huge, too!

Sorry so big. I will work on that.

If you need help with resizing ask Jeanne, or check her instructions http://www.christianphotographers.com/community/index.php?board=92.0.  She has left instructions for everything here!!

Now about your picture...  It is amazing!  You have some great pictures here well done!

That thread coming down from the weaver, is that part of the web?

WOW!

Thanks for the link, Judy!
And yes, that zigzag was part of the web. I'm not sure why they do that, but it looks pretty cool. The web was beautiful! I wish I could have gotten my camera to pick up on it.

If the web is nearby what about trying a coloured piece of construction paper behind it.  I had a craft book as a child that showed how to do this.  The coloured paper would show off the white of the web.  I am thinking perhaps black?

Oh, that's a cool idea! I'm not sure it would work for this one, first because it is so big, and second because it is so close to the wall. I'm not sure I want to get my hand that close to this huge spider! lol

I will keep that in mind if there is another pretty spiderweb that is more accessible!

Ahhh, one of my favorite spiders! They are really very colorful, good shot!

Thanks!
They are really cool lookin'.

I'll be watching the egg sac. Maybe I will get some shots of the youngins when they break out.

As a child, I was always on the lookout for beautiful webs. This one took me back to some wonderful memories. Thanks.
