    From my backyard. The scene was as is when I first saw it, no kids throwing insects in the web for fun...I only wish I could have witnessed the fly actually get snared in the web and the subsequent attack. This'll do I guess!

    I had to push the depth of field / shutter speed combination (for handholding) a bit more here to get the fly and most of the spider in focus. At 1/80s. and some wind kicking around it was tough to get sharp pictures, but a few came out very nice.

    Canon 7D + 100mm f/2.8 macro, aperture priority, evaluative metering, 1/80s., f/8, ISO 800, -0.7 EC, natural light, full-frame at 1:1 magnification ratio.
