Saul, You did well just to spot this!
Well seen and taken.
Handheld stacks are a challenge.

This is a lovely image!

I'm trying to figure out the context. What are the many spiky seeds(?) that surround the spider? Any idea what prompted the spider to web out in such a space?

I guess that it is a wild carrot

...Any idea what prompted the spider to web out in such a space?...

It was a windy day and I saw web leftovers around - most probably it was safe place for her ....

Excellent immage. Well done.

Wow, that is a cool one. I like the whole "game of thrones" look.

That's really a nice one and huge. Very cool and interesting composition. The queen anne's lace around here often have their own personal spider hiding in them, like a black jumping spider that sits right in the middle.
