Lurking In The Dark

I showed the spider under our deck (see below) a little while ago so I thought I'd show you the one
that hangs around above our heads. She's usually tucked in against the siding which doesn't make for
a pretty shot, but this time she was out on her web. I'm guessing it's a she as there's a 'couple'
under the deck and I'm assuming the smaller one is the male or a pending snack!!!

Nikon D70s

Fantastic, Dave. It's so easy to over sharpen these hairy little things with all the detail they offer, but this couldn't be better. Keep up the good work.
