One small one from round my pond, first 2 pairs of legs out front the 3rd pair holding round the stem and the back pair facing backwards, this is the way they lay in-wait.

They are such weird spiders obviously their technique works. Interesting side profile shot.

How big was this one?
 
Very tough to get decent close ups, trying to get as much in focus while working with the foliage, and also they are very small bodied compared to the length, so you can lose detail of the body.

Really good job here, far better than I've ever managed. Nice work.
 
Nicely framed like the angle of the stem across the shot:)
 
Nice shot and it's interesting to see how they hold on to the stem in that way. I hate to say it, but I would also like to see one with a little less magnification :eek: I'd like to see one with it fully in frame so you can see just how long those legs are. Nice to be able to see the body in detail though ;)
 
Thanks all, Tim I will add one from this set I took later. Just seen Bryn linked it.
 
Yeah I checked that out. Very interesting, but agree this was the best choice for posting.
