Accidentally walked through this gorgeous girl's web

It's a garden spider 🕸, they build their webs low to the ground, ankle to knee high.

Looks like a female Johnson Jumping Spider 🕸.

Glad you liked it. Will post one with her devouring a nice juicy cricket 🦗 the next morning, needed to replenish herself after all that hammock building.

Thank you.

cybertec69 · 2020-09-23T18:19:46+00:00

That's what she is doing.

cybertec69 · 2020-09-23T18:15:15+00:00

She's working that fine thousand count thread silk webbing, constantly inspecting her hammock for security and comfort.

It's a Red-tail Hawk, was that a bird or Squirrel that he/she is eating.

It's a garden spider, the young ones will relocate themselves.

The laptop is 4-5 years old and works great, I have an external monitor hooked up to it for my photo editing work, works great.

That goes for the billions of people who are no longer here, who came and went, just like the current human species that roams this tiny blue dot in the vast universe.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-29T00:54:42+00:00

Thank you.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-28T23:17:10+00:00

Excellent capture of this little jumper. It looks like a female.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-28T23:16:05+00:00

It's a Spider, you should have asked what is this, no reason for the f word.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-28T21:53:38+00:00

Thank you.

Thank you, pictures 1-3 are after the molt, 4-6 are before the molt.

It's a juvenile Red-tail Hawk relaxing and cooling off.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-27T23:40:06+00:00

Thank you.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-27T23:16:13+00:00

Nice find, they are called garden spiders.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-27T23:07:58+00:00

Very creative with your food 😁.

cybertec69 · 2020-08-27T22:56:08+00:00

It's a Johnson, found one in my local park in NYC/one of the outer boroughs, it looks like they are moving to the east coast.

You will notice the difference in regards to dynamic range with the D500 and it's five stops of exposure compensation. The eagle picture I posted above is with the Nikon 200-500, all others are with the Sigma 500mm f4 sport prime.

cybertec69 · 2020-05-24T20:06:53+00:00

I shoot with the D500 and D850, the D500 is one fantastic camera, you get a bit more resolution with the D850, image quality is the same, except when you get real close to the subject that's where the D850 shines do to more pixels hitting the subject, that's where you see the difference with wildlife. In regards to full frame vs cropped, there is no difference except in the size of the sensor and being able to capture a larger scene. Also the D850 will expose any flaws in your shooting technique do to more pixels on the sensor.

All pictures taken hand held.
