 Watching this spider, I was amazed by the sensitivity that it must have in its legs to perform the task of web building or for detecting the vibrations of its prey, in this case 2ft way as it was a big web. Incredible.

Other than a slight centering crop, this is an untouched shot. The background if a blue concrete garage panel.
