I couldn't find a thread for spider pictures in OT Gallery, so here goes:

Black-and-Yellow Garden Spider (Argiope Aurantia) on Flickr-- I just learned what this one was, now that there's one with a web between our back deck and the clothes line. This photo was taken, fairly perversely, with Panasonic G1 and an old Vivitar Series 1 70-210mm macro zoom.

This set up home on the tomato plants

Crop from a Panasonic G2 with 14-42 kit lens

Hmm--it says "this photo is currently unavailable." Is Flickr hiccuping again?

There's a reason there wasn't a thread *shiver*

Dunno if it's hiccupping or playing silly buggers.

That's a very impressive spider.

Web Orb spider living in a bush next to the parking area at the end of the Battle Mountain course. He wasn't at home this year; his best mate Georgi said he'd gone off into the desert chasing lady spiders.

I love the translucence with then sun behind it.

Spiders from the back garden. Sunny Sunday 2nd October. Okay, they aren't perfectly in focus, but could I still my shaking hand?!! I blame the macro setting and no tripod.
