Hi, spider webs fascinate me, I often look at them and think ‘how on earth did you get from there to there’ and the webs are so strong, good post. Janice

when I was aiming my camera at the web trying to get an image, the spider actually dropped/jumped into the web on a prey …right before my eyes. I was snapping pix, and first the web was unoccupied and the next second the spider was there. Remarkable.

I know…I actually did get the shot, but it is blurry, and sort of gross, the prey didn’t have a chance all wrapped up in the sticky web.

I know…it is amazing what intricate work goes into the web. I do get the sticky-web thing, ever walk into a web without seeing it?

Oh yes, my hand went into a web the other day and I couldn’t get the tough sticky stuff off me. Makes you wonder what would happen if spiders were as big as us and we fell onto the web, I don’t think we would be strong enough to escape lol.

oh man…how awful that would be. I bet the one that thought it had caught you must have been disappointed. All that work, then something to big to eat wrecks it. lol

That looks like a huge spider. Spiders scare me, especially big ones. And little ones. I’m not proud.

It is a biggun…. I treat it with the utmost respect. It isn’t crazy about the flash from my camera, but it will pose now and then. Its web is in a more or less protected spot where no one walks into it. I have decided in my old age that I want to be a photographer, and spider webs are a challenge. Actually I’ve been shooting pictures for decades, even supported five kids for two years on my pics. Never won any prizes…I need a new camera.

Respect…yeah, that’s a wise move. Wow, you made money with your photos! How great, I would love that. I would love to win a contest (big ego), but I think making a living and supporting loved ones with your art is way more satisfying.

back in the day when working as a reporter I got paid for my photos…not since, though. I was supporting five kids then…yikes!

A reporter…I always wanted to do that, just never got around to trying it. Oh wait, I did write a travel story once that got published, with my photos!

Nice work, Gradmama. To get the actual spider and the sticky web, hard lighting and angles, I’m sure! I do all my photos with my iPhone 6, so I just maneuver it to where I think things will look best, look at the screen for verification, and click away!

thanks Mark, I saw him jump through the camera lens…im not sure if he blurred the photo or if I did…it was surprise to me. he is a blur. In my fiirst part, with the nice web shot, I had not noticed that spider. Totally different areas of the yard.
