To me, this is what nightmares are made of. I took this image in the Texas panhandle with a Nikon D300 and a Micro Nikkor 105, 2.8 lens.

This is such a dramatic and at the same time beautiful image of the spider! This little guy looks great, as does the mystical background! Superb work, Karen! l/f

I must be crazy, but I love these big colorful orb-weavers! I felt privileged to observe one giant female on her amazing web all of one summer, in our tool shed at the cabin. Totally fascinating, just like this eerie but brilliant work of art! Fabulous! fav

Thank you Dawn...Yes, they are creepy and I have a strong dislike of spiders, but the orb weavers are fun to watch and photography. As long as they don't come in the house, they are safe...

Gorgeous and outstanding! I love spiders, especially orb-weavers and can watch them for hours. As a kid I loved to feed them the mosquitoes I swatted! fav

Thank you Dawn, I love catching grasshoppers and watching the spiders feed on them...lol
