This female Hentz’s Orbweaver (Neoscona crucifera) invited a honeybee to (become) lunch. A mistake the bee will not soon repeat.

Nikon D5000 at ISO 400 with a Nikkor 105G macro lens, 1/200-sec at f/16, full sun & O-Flash 3/4-circle Fresnel prism attachment.





Extreme crop of eyes

Doesn't look like the bee will EVER make that mistake (again).

I told him to "Bee Careful". Very sharp and detailed. Still trying for this result.

Ewwww. I got some close-ups of a big ol' garden spider swaddling a fat, juicy grasshopper -- and had the cold shudders for days .

And yet I keep right on looking at (and admiring) your great shots of 'pydoz'! (a la my little girl, back when she was little)
