Hi Susan @llen A terrific shot and one for my favs so Y*.I hope it was not a nastie no photo is worth the risk. Best Wishes Alan

Thanks very much, Ben :) I had another shot of this spider with no background whatsoever and I didn't know which to put up on here, but I think you can see the pretty chevron effect more on this one. Mind you, the other one was nice and floaty...hard decisions to make! Anyway, thank you so much for calling in and for your most encouraging comment. Great to hear from you!

Very best wishes

Sue

HI Alan, how are you this evening, ....no morning... no afternoon.... my goodness, it's quite confusing at times. Thank you so much for your great message and for putting this in your favorites too. I was just trotting out the gate early this morning and saw him busily altering his web in such a handy position for me to get a shot of him. I was late meeting my neighbour down the road for a walk, but I thought this shot might be worth the delay and your lovely comment has proved me right! THANK YOU!

Very best wishes to you, and hope you have a good weekend,

Sue

Full size on this one is quite impressive, Sue. Nice shot!

Sue Allen on April 22, 2009

Hope your weekend came up to expectations, Alan! I will come over and see what new pictures you have when I get a chance. I have to go to town in a minute, more's the pity.

Best wishes, sue

Jen, that did work, but since I'd already been there back in February, you could have blinking well done it on one I hadn't been to! :D:D:D Your spider picture is head and shoulders above this one though, you've got the light shining through his body in a most beautiful way -- well done again. Catch you soon,:) sue

Sue Allen on April 22, 2009

Thank you, not1word, I really appreciate you coming over and having a look at my pics all the time. You are a faithful OZ traveler! I only noticed after I'd put this on the computer that I could see beads of water on his bum. I'm getting quite interested in all things teeny weeny since getting that new camera and having a good look at insects and spiders on the screen. I'm not nearly as scared of spiders as I used to be, but can see that they're interesting and even beautiful at times. Another benefit of photography--phobia fixing!

Have a good kip, time to go to town now,

Best wishes, sue

It's funny how looking through a view finder takes one out of the equation. Suddenly, we're just an observer, almost like we're hovering in some sort of third space, removed from the rest of what's going on.

Sue Allen on April 23, 2009

Yes, exactly! not1word, you're a deep thinking dude! Exactly so - more remote from reality just from the physical act of looking through a view finder. Maybe we're conditioned by watching TV. I watch plenty of things on there which I couldn't bare to see on the street...

I shall ponder more on this subject while doing my washing! (I wonder if I could become remote from that subject by looking at it through my view finder. :)

Best wishes to you n1w, Sue

Give it a try, Sue. But don't get so removed that you keep putting the same clothes in the washer.
