 was shooting for the bokeh challenge and it had been raining .. which is perfect for the bokeh ... and water droplets ..
this was a miracle shot .. the spider with his leg out like that holding the droplet ..
almost like an offering ..

hope i dont get marked down for two spiders in voting .. they are completely different .. altho taken on the same day .. and i dont get out much . !! .. ;)

I can just imagine the spider saying to you “hurry up Roz. Get the shot!” It’s perfect:)
