another spider

Hi,

I'm not into photography, but thought i'd try a few shots with my canon 1000d.

this was at night, this spider had a huge web pretty high up between two trees.
how on earth does it lay its web between to trees at that height? there's no room for it to swing either.

i'm guessing this is a common one in most people's backyard.

Very nice capture of the lovely orb-weaver spider. Well done.

I have been looking and looking for this creature and as yet haven't found one in the Geelong area.

I love that first photo. Love the detail, those hairy legs LOL

Great pictures and glad I haven't found one in my backyard.
