Description

Hi there. Now I will show you the most beautiful spider I ever seen here. This is a female Wasp Spider (Argiope bruennichi). They are such big (about 25mm body-length) and beautiful creatures. The first time I saw one was when we took a stroll in the area of the last year garden exhibition - this day I left the cam at home - a big mistake. I found 5-6 females in really good positions for capturing. You surely understand my sadness about having no cam. So I showed them some children there - they all show interest and no fear. That makes me happy. Some days later I come back to this place - with the cam and the macro-lens for sure. And what a lucky man I was. There where some of them waiting to be a model. I managed some shots and now I will show you some of them - as a highlight of the spider week. Hope you like them too.

Man, I gotta tell you- your macro photography has excelled to a level that really needs to be published. When you demonstrate consistent quality like this, it is a sure sign that you need to pursue it with full ambition.
