Image conveys the apt name very well! Very nicely framed by the funnel in the web. well placed subject. You have very steady hands to get such a sharp image to hand hold @ 1/40 sec.
Ravi, my hands are pretty stable but the image stabilisation on Olympus is beyond that of any other system.

Interesting image, Jon. I second Ravi's comments. Quite the web this spider weaves. Thank you for sharing.

Well i can see why they call it the Labyrinth spider. Like the framing as is. A very neat frame overall.
