Backyard photography is all about looking closely at what's nearby.
The critter illustrated is a common orb weaver spider, Neoscona hentzi, ventral view, in its web in our front yard after a rain shower.
The photograph was taken with a Canon Digital Rebel XT with a shutter speed of 1/30 second, aperture f4.5, focal length of 30mm, and ISO 400.
