Second thing I noticed was how patched up his web is, he looks like he has eaten his fair share of bugs. Nearly 1/2 of his web looks like it has been repaired.

You can imagine how I felt when I was shooting it...it was facing straight ahead and as I shot it RAISED itself to bare its underside...yikes!

Apr 15, 2009 14:22 | #11 I have to say this guy makes the case for a macro with a focal length longer than 50-60mm for some kinds of shots...I shot this at the long end of the 28-135 where there's less depth of field...I had to go to about 1/80th sec to get F10 or so...thank goodness for IS!!
