Dear Life by grammyn

Dear Life

While working in my yard this morning before the rain started too heavily I saw this little spider hanging on to the vane of one of my wind chimes for dear life!
So delicate and beautiful ...lovely capture, Katy! Great dof .. we got that rain too. All night!

You made a spider look great! Nice job!

Opiliones. Not a spider

@karenann Thanks,KarenAnn! It was tricky getting this shot because of that wind you mentioned in the other photo. There wasn't as much as you mentioned but enough to keep this vane moving and making it difficult to focus!

@kimmistephens Absolutely right. We call them daddy long legs and I always thought if it had 8 legs it was a spider. thanks for setting me straight!

@grammyn I love these little guys but so rarely get to see them.

I thought it looked more like a daddy-long-legs than a spider, but figured you knew better than I... :) He is a dainty looking little guy and you captured him well...

@kimfaria I appreciate it, Kim. And I am with you!

@kimmistephens I used to see a lot when I was a kid but as you said I seldom see them anymore. Maybe it is because don't spend all day playing in the grass I used too! ;~}

@marilyn See.there you go again. I am NOT the smart one! And as I said eight legs = spider. Simplify! Thanks so much for the kind words! ♥

Love the dark background so we can see it so well.

@tthompsonca Thanks, Terri. I would have probably missed it myself if it had not been for that background.
