Argiope sp

 * Reason:Good quality, DOF, EV and lighting considering it was taken in a pretty dark space between a rock and a stream. Wide crop shows the Web decorations, the spider and the web.

 * Support If it was a bit sharper it could have been shot of the month for me. Fascinating subject, great context with the web structure in there; lighting is ideal to illustrate the camo effect of the decoration. Superb. --mikaultalk 13:21, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - High EV, detail and illustrates a very original thing. - Damërung  ...ÏìíÏ..._ Ξ_         .   --  15:12, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
