Spiders are one of the insects known for their expertise in knitting webs in various forms that are difficult for our common sense to understand.
This insect does have a lot of uniqueness and privileges, so it is not uncommon for macro photography lovers to always capture interesting moments about spiders.
I'm sharing some of these images for the daily #monomad challenge hosted by @monochromes in black and white visuals.
Bark spider - Caerostris is a type of spider that makes a reliable web, it can even knit large webs overnight.
The size is quite large and unique, this spider has four small eyes located right in the middle of its forehead and two red eyes on the right and left sides.
Why only two pictures here? When I was about to move this spider with a small twig to another place to do another photo shoot, suddenly he dropped himself in the bushes and it was a shame I had to lose him.
Next is the spider Metepeira labyrinthea which has a slightly smaller body than the first. Spiders are also weaver spiders, they prefer to knit their webs as traps to catch other insects.
Why is this spider on a small wooden branch? In fact, it is very difficult to get perfect focus to shoot a small spider that is nesting in its web.
The gust of wind and a place that is not supportive will make the photo session very disturbed. So to get maximum results, sometimes we really have to move the object to an easier place for shooting.
And here are some pictures of the Metepeira labyrinthea spider, I hope you like it, thank you.
