Esta imagen me estaba gritando desde la página principal.
Me encanta!
Me gustan las arañas, pero esta es especialmente... elegante? no sabría definirlo pero tiene algo, y el contraste con la mosca y el fondo de flores lo acentúa aún más.
Genial la foto, el momento, el lugar y los protagonistas... increíble!
No conozco Asturias aún, pero si estas son las cosas que te puedes encontrar por ahí, igual me doy un salto en algún puente
Felicidades por la foto! ^^

¡Muchas gracias por tu amable comentario! ^^
No dejes de visitar Asturias en cuanto tengas oportunidad. Si tienes suerte con el tiempo y no llueve (demasiado), no dejarás de hacer fotos. Yo voy una quincena cada año desde hace ya muchos y suelo volver con no menos de 1000 fotos cada vez...
Un saludo

Yay go spider!! >: D

Very wonderful shot. It's amazing when you get a chance to see something like this happening, and more to have a ready camera to capture it. I once caught a black widow and a tarantula hawk fighting. It was amazing. Wonderful to watch.

I love it, but I have so many mixed feelings about spiders... lol I love how it captures the scene right before the death of the fly. Great timing! Love the picture since we don't really so much of life and death photography on dA. The white spider really pops out to me even though it surrounded my white flowers. Fantastic!!! But, still... Agh! Spider! D: lol

I clicked this...not knowing what that white thing was. I'm deathly afraid of spiders.

How did you get so close to this thing without crapping yourself? I give you points for that.

Oh, sorry!
I not was too close. It seems closer because the pic was taken with the help of a macro lens...

i wish there was this kind of spider where i live. that's a beautiful spider.

the only kind of white spider here would be yellow sac spiders, which are the only kind i ever kill... i just really really really hate yellow sac spiders.

No sé mucho de fotografía pero amo la imagen, es muy potente, esta captando el momento ideal y el fondo no pudo haber sido mejor. Especialmente porque es una especie de contraste fuerte de conceptos entre lo principal y el fondo.
Además has hecho que los insectos, normalmente catalogados como asquerosos, mostraran... no se si decir belleza...
Y que la araña combine con las flores como su presa que es negra sea totalmente contraria... realmente me encanta!!

No tiendo a dejar comentarios en general, tampoco agregar fotos a mis favs pero realmente esto lo merece!
