Why Tyger? Because Wasp Spider is called in Polish Tygrzyk - Tiger Spider.

THE TYGER (from Songs Of Experience)
By William Blake

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare sieze the fire?


And what shoulder, & what art.
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?


What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?


When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?


Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

HI Greg, yes it does have stripes like a tiger. Nicely captured on the web over the green leaf. And it looks like a messy web too. And it has its prey as well. Busy tiger spider! Well done.
Janice

Hi Greg,
This macro has excellent colors, and sharp detail. He is to busy with his meal to bother with you. Nice shot!
Scott

Hi Greg,
It's a very nice spider you have caught.
The details are very good and the colours are nice.
I like the POV and composition.
Pity about the shadow of the right side of the leave, it's a bit disturbing.
Very well done, my friend.

Sharp detail and a good POV of spider with prey Greg. "Did he who made the lamb make thee?"
Yes, it is certainly so. Don't you agree?
Well done my friend. Thank You.

Czesc, to ujecie tygrzyka podoba mi sie znacznie bardziej niz poprzednie - m.in. pewnie efekt zielonego tla :-) Swietny wierszyk... Serdecznosci, Michal

It is nice to see that you are also "spidery", just like me this days... :D
This one is very lovely, great in all aspects. The only thing I would like is to see better the web. Thanks very much, and sorry for my rush, in fact I your question about posting more seldom, made me make the effort. Thanks!
PD: I do have the upper side of my spider. I will post for you soon. Regards, Felipe.

Hello Greg,
