Jeffster from Long Island, United StatesWow...what a cool shot. Those needles look mighty sharp! 1 Feb 2009 5:20am @Maxine: thanks Max EYES WIDE SHUT from United KingdomBeautiful and, for me, scary! I have a deep and meaningful phobia of spiders, deep enough to bring me out in cold sweats and see me running screaming to the hills whenever a wolf spider or large house spider waves a furry leg in my direction! This is beautifullt captured, Debbie, and you have the perfect title. I'll try and view it without my hand over my face now Ha ha 1 Feb 2009 5:59am @EYES WIDE SHUT: Why do you think I was pleased it was empty. I share your perfectly natural phobia of anything small with eight legs hehehe willow from Chelsea, United StatesWow! ?this is incredible! I love the detail - such an intricate web. Great find! 1 Feb 2009 6:11am @micke bergling: thanks for the comment and the visit LeenaM from Joensuu, FinlandThis is something!!

How intricate and beautiful, never seen anything like it, just marvellous Deb! 1 Feb 2009 9:33am Linerberry from Sumner, Christchurch, New ZealandOh my goodness mate! That is incredible....I would have been off like a shot not taking a shot!!!! LOL! 1 Feb 2009 10:21am dobbino from Cape Town, South AfricaGreat shot, Debs - this looks like a nest from the rain spider - a harmless (other than possibly inducing a heart attack!) but huge spider. 1 Feb 2009 12:00pm Charles from New York, United StatesI have never seen a nest like this before. Doesn't seem fair to the flies/bugs! Awesome shot. 1 Feb 2009 1:42pm @veronic: thanks for the comment and the visit Ronnie 2¢ from London, United KingdomWhat a wonderful construction . . like something from SF ! 1 Feb 2009 4:12pm MaryP from Aberdeenshire, United KingdomReminds me of 'Aliens'. Very interesting image. I love the 'patterning' of the web? and the colours, really quite abstract. Lovely! 1 Feb 2009 4:22pm Observing from West Cheshire, United KingdomYikes....! it's like some kind of Alien membrane smothering its victim. A nice image. 1 Feb 2009 5:28pm Graham Russon from Cape Town, South AfricaGreat capture, glad the spider wasn't home 1 Feb 2009 7:43pm JJ from Jersey City, United StatesWOW this is so interesting, my eyes were roving around it for a while catching all the wonderful detail there 2 Feb 2009 1:52am Lesley from Lincoln, United StatesShelob's den? ;) Shudder.
