Spider in His Web - with Droplets


You need to let the little things that would ordinarily bore you suddenly thrill you.

Hiding In the Goldenrod


Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.
~Zora Neale Hurston

I think this is a type of crab spider - however - I have no idea what type.
I found this info on Wikipedia about crab spiders. I LOVE Wikipedia!
This guy was itsy-bitsy. I used my 105mm Macro Lens for this shot (seen in my sidebar under favorites).
