Don't know nothing about spiders there lx200 but it sure is a translucent little bugger. From the size of the abdomen it is carrying a lot of young. Nice image, thanks. :D

Looks like an Orb weaver, but I will have to check when I get home this evening.

Orb weaver?

Post by lx200 »

I dunno... did not appear to be an orb weaver from all the shots I looked at. And guesses on second thought?

Is that a type of Lynx spider. They seem to be more of a green with a clear look about them. They are generally fairly small and this one looks like it could be one. Anyway, a very nice macro with good sharp details. Great lighting and nice angular comp.

All the best and very nicely done :D
