Catch of the Day [Original Photography]

in createivecoin •  5 years ago  (edited)

Sometimes you are just lucky. Got back from a bike ride and saw Boris (or one of his relatives) paralyzing this small black beetle that had unfortunately flown into his web. Looks like a good dinner to me. I suspect he will wrap it up and keep it for later. These were quite tricky shots as he was looking downwards so I was trying to support the camera and diffuser in quite a tricky position. These are possibly my favourite spider captures. So nice to get him looking into the camera with the prey being injected with venom

Thanks for looking

Gorgeous shot... Even though it's a spider 😂

Misspelled the "createivecoin" tag :(

Bugger, thanks for pointing that out

Eek! How big is this thing?

Tagging @veryspider, cos you know, she's a spider.

30ft

It’s her brother

Actually about 2cm diameter

I'm not a big fan of spiders, however I am a big fan of amazing images and these are great shots. Happy Friday Mark.
