Spider and Perfect Web

Hope this is the correct subforum for this.....shot this last night in my front yard, this spider built this web between 2 Dogwood trees about chest high.
I used a flashlight to set focus and a 580exii on ground firing up and a 430ex firing into the web. Wish the spider was more in focus and not blown out sorta...but I like it!

I like how the web is isolated in space, I'd say this turned out quite well!

^^Terrific...I love how the light catches the web, and the black background is very effective.

That is an over achiever spider! Awesome picture!!!

Thanks everyone...the wife was laughing at me because I was out in the front yard moving flashes all over the place. She was on the phone with her dad joking about it and when I got the shot, she was surprised...she said, "Wow, he actually got it!"

Very nicely done!

Very nice capture.

These guys are very efficient with their web building. I was working late in a friends shop one night, and one of these weavers made a web between the top of the truck we were working on.......and the opening to the garage door. In about ~10 minutes, the spider finished the web. It was very impressive to see the coordination it had. Also when it made a complete loop and started the next row, it would actually skip down 3-4 rows and pull the web up and refasten it......to put tension on the web. Pretty cool.

I still hate spiders though.

awesome shot, the color in that web is stunning

very cool shot

Love how it turned out, the web against the black really works.

Well done.....

Thanks all!!

very nice image
