Still alive…

Not taken much of late, been busy and there is a lack of insects in late December in England! PStill alive though, is one of the spiders in my outhouse. This was at an awkward angle to get to, right up against the back corner, behind all kinds of typically stored stuff in the outhouse (trolleys, old cement bags and sand, plant pots and garden tools…) You can see the lacy/funnel structure of the spider’s web – Tegenaria gigantica are more hunters than catchers (they wait for prey to enter the funnel rather than get caught on sticky strands) so their webs are less traps than domiciles…/PPExif:/PPCamera Maker: CanonBRCamera Model: Canon EOS 70DBRLens: EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USMBRImage Date: 2013-12-16 12:49:59 +0000BRFocal Length: 100mmBRAperture: f/10.0BRExposure Time: 0.0040 s (1/250)BRISO equiv: 100BRExposure Bias: noneBRMetering Mode: MatrixBRExposure: aperture priority (semi-auto)BRWhite Balance: AutoBRFlash Fired: Yes (Auto, return light detected)BROrientation: NormalBRColor Space: sRGBBRGPS Coordinate: undefined, undefinedBRCreator: Paul IddonBRCopyright: Paul Iddon – A View of the UK/PPBRIMG border=0 alt=”” src=”http://www.photo-natural.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/wpid-1080spider02.jpg”/PPPaul. /P
