Thinking about my gardens (as I do on Tuesday) perhaps the most exciting image I have taken in one of my gardens was of this one at Whistler's Rest in February 2011.
There was a spider's web stretched across my path and I noticed a tiny spider that glinted with a little bit of colour in the sunlight. My eyesight was not up to fine detail so I poked my camera in her direction and clicked a few times as she scurried along her web ... thinking something interesting might be picked up by my lens. I had no idea I had captured one of these exquisite creatures.
Certainly interesting. I am not a great lover of spiders and tend not to photograph them, but I realise I probably miss out on something amazing.
ReplyDeleteThe bug world some amazing shapes and colours. Not my specialty either.
DeleteNice work Joan Elizabeth, amazing markings for such a teensy spider ✨
ReplyDeleteIt is not just the markings. There are pointy bits too.
DeleteAmazing colours. What a lovely surprise for you.
ReplyDeleteA big surprise
DeleteQuite colourful.
ReplyDeleteThe black body makes the colours stand out.
DeleteColorful, yet anything with more than 4 legs freaks me out a bit (I know... and then I come to Australia, the joke is on me).
ReplyDeleteI am sure have spiders in your land. We just like to make out ours are especially ferocious to attract tourists.
