All things that glisten aren't gold!

More from the Boondall Wetlands. I love the way the silver and gold really shines on her back.

Beautiful. Lovely macro shot, too. Is she standing on water or is that just her web?

[marg]

Wow - this is such a clear photo. Good capture.

[Sarah]

Great shot! Great colours and focus! I like to see the details of the spider!

[Chel]

Such a nice photo! Got heaps of detail in it- I'm going to need some pointers I think!

[Jason Daniels]

Silver Camel Spider I reckon' (Leucauge dromedaria)... gotta love that scientific surname?

[alia_801]

[Kirsty McLaughlan]

wow, fab spider

[Britt Gow]

Gee, you're brave to get so close! Lovely shot!

@bobfoto I was hoping you would tell us what kind of spider, thanks.
@girlie That's just the web Robin.
@saarart It would have been nice to see her head as well, maybe next time.

@murnane @kirsty1975 @alia_801 @chel Thanks!

[Sheralee S]

@brittgow They don't seem to mind as long as I don't touch the web, I must admit if they move quickly I get a bit of a fright, lol.

[Britt Gow]

@bella_ss I know that feeling! Tried to catch a pic of one on a pole at the swimming pool ;)

[Sheralee S]

@brittgow Hehe, we're all brave until they move a millimetre!

[Sarah White]

Amazing capture.

[Jason Daniels]

@bella_ss - I agree.

[Dana Derrico]

WOW@thedetail of this! AMAZING.

[Sheralee S]

@coolgirlsar @poggy1818 Thanks, she is quite a beautiful spider I think.
@bobfoto I can't see you being too scared of spiders Jason, you feed grasshoppers to them!

[Jason Daniels]

@bella_ss - from the distance of a 300mm telephoto!

[Dawn Kellerman]
