    For those that dont like spiders.....look away now !

    Not really a landscape as such, but didn't know where to put this, and thought it may be of interest to some.

    There is a stretch of world heritage waterway/brackish lagoon about 150 klms from me called the " Coorong ", which stretches for around 100klm. Each year millions of spiders amass along the lagoon creating an amazing spectacle....although a little creepy

    This was one foggy morning while I camped there, and is just a small snippet of the extent of the spider webs blanketing the low bushes. { yes, a few macro pix of the spiders responsible were taken }

    Nikon D300 + Tamron 90mm macro.....90mm, f10, 1/125, ISO 500, -0.3EV, hand held, foggy conditions

    Definitely a landscape; definitely belongs here; I definitely like it!

    However, you shot at 90mm and you SS was 125; I think it is a bit soft.
    Cheers, Jay

    Thanks Jay, you are right, I was more interested in getting macro shots of the little spiders and couldn't be bothered changing lenses...my errr

    Looks eerie, Phil! I agree with Jay, adding a bit more SS would have resulted in a crisper image. Nice mood and well seen, though.
