This web was nonexistent after dinner. Then a few hours later it was just about complete on my front porch. Anyone know what it's called?

Shot with my 5D2 & 85mm with 580EX II off camera in total darkness. :)

Looks like a Garden Orb Weaver. We have one at the house and I tried to get some photos the other day while it was weaving but spiders give me the HEEBIE JEEBIES! UGH...I can feel it crawling on me now.

*swats legs, back and head...then shivers*

Thanks. Couldn't get as close, so they are pretty heavy crops. But, I was still pleased with them.

I believe it is a Barn Spider.

Nice shots. But I agree with sophie's-mom. Heebie Jeebies here too.


All I want is just a little more than I'll ever have.
