A part of the twig

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Long jawed orb spider

On a search for the winged angles along the dense area of the garden, my attention got diverted towards the beauty that was trying its best to hide away from me, but probably the lighting gave it away easily. The beauty, almost like the tip of the twig, started to move away and try to blend into the surrounding, by compressing its legs along the length and almost disappearing along the thick stem of the plant

I too couldn't spot it in the start, the legs helped to spot it :). The lighting was a bit tricky. I think a higher shutter speed would have helped to get more sharpness. Thanks for sharing.
