    Ah, the beauty of digital...

    I photographed this spider about 3:00 and posted his pic. below under "Little Guy." It was raining around 5:00, so I went back to see him again and took this more convetional pic. Here it is for your consideration through the magic of digital. Please share your thoughts and comments.

    As far as pics of spiders go I like both of them.
    They are very colorful.
    The spider contrasts well against the green background.
    There are a lot of interesting details.

    I prefer the other photo of this guy because it is sharper. The water droplets are a nice touch though.

    I agree with readingr, although both pictures are quite good, the other one is sharper.
    Photos are memories that last a lifetime.

    It actually looks like it's lil fuzziness just got wet, and the saturation (water) of the web may make it look soft, but the waterdrops would explain that to a viewer, and they add to the shot.

    Fuzziness?? Spiders??

    My neighbor found a Black Widow nest yesterday!!
