Macro Monday - hosted by LisaI got up close and personal with this spider the other day. Aren't her markings spectacular?
She seems to be repairing a hole in the web...
...which is such a fascinating bit of architecture.
This is her underbelly - can't see the web because of the white background. I think this is a common cross spider, Araneus diadematus .

She and her web are beautiful! So delicate and lovely!
The spider and the web are so beautifully captured!
Wow! Great shots of both the spider and the web! The underbelly of the spider gave my stomach a whirl...I do hope she stays on that web! Great post!
Yep, that's a Common Cross spider! We get a lot of them here. In fact, there is one just outside our back door, spinning a huge web... shhh! Don't tell OH!!
She is rather gorgeous, isn't she? Great pictures, too!
