My entry to the Scavenger Hunt: Smaller than a paper clip.

The commonly seen Garden Orb Weavers are 2 - 3 cm (female) or 1.5 - 2 cm (male) in body length. Most are stout, reddish-brown or grey spiders with a leaf-shaped pattern on their fat, roughly triangular abdomens, which also have two noticeable humps towards the front. They sometimes have a dorsal stripe, which may be white, or brown edged with white.

nice shot alla.I like the contrast between te web and de colours behind.

Hi Alla,
nice shot, I like a lot the sharpness on www.... (arrrghhh... on the spider's web!) and the spider itself. High blur on the background helps a lot! Could be darker a bit the background though. The title is WONDERFUL! You had very funny association! tfs

Marek

Wonderfully captured shot, with the focusing (which is everything in these kind of shots) being spot on. Sharpness and contrast are also very good.

Well done:)

Hi Alla, I like your composition very much. The OOF background accentuates the spider and its web nicely.

Hi Alla,
I think this is a very good macro! The spider is captured with great detail, but I'm most impressed by the way you capture the web! Good DOF, nicely composed and great colours... Well done indeed

Excellent macro Alla, it really is amazing what our Olympus cameras can achieve given the right light. Great DOF and the OOF background always highlights the web nicely. TFS

Hi Alla,

Your shot is an excellent one for the hunt! I like the title :) Exceptional detail and DOF.

Bonjour Alla
Some "viruses" appear on this web: Irregular weaving!!!
Excellent macroscopic view on out of focus background, and quite interesting note.
Robert

Alla,
The shallow DOF here is great. It brings out the web real nice. Nice work.
