The signature guy

ID: Signature spider

A beautiful specimen we stumbled upon before starting off the trail, the gorgeous arachnid had some serious amount if the web designing done with a broad 'X' hgihlighting off, basically aiding in spotting the spider, almost like a cross of the bulls eye. By the time we returned back the sunlight was hitting the spider and its decorative signature giving it a very special look

The 'X' sign looks nice. I think there are slight highlights (not sure if its my screen)in the 'X', but then as the spider is against the light, it would have become dark :mellow:. Did you try using a narrower aperture? Thanks for sharing.

This is really different and one of the very special look giving specimen. Nice :)
