[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This shot was took in the same day and the same spider as the other photo posted here a few days ago.. I think the little spider is a male (males are always smaller than the females) and the things after the spider are unfortunate insects that are in same cocoon to be apreciated later..
Thanks to Fabiano Chede that told me the spider is a Nephila and that kind of spider is a big one in the world.. this one has nine to teen centimeters large (diameter) I used a high speed to capture cause the male was very nervous ;) but I think the focus it's OK
I hope you enjoy it.

Hello Taba, you do show us 2 interesting spiders and 2 waiting to be devoured insects too. The colours and details and focus look good to me. Well done,
Janice

Hi Taba,

very nice capture to get both the male and the female together. Nice picture. TFS.

Hi Taba,
Interesting shot in that it clearly shows the huge size difference for this species, male/female. Some clear detail seen on the females abdomen and legs, although I think some fill flash would help this one..
Well done & TFS!

ACLARACION:la araña pequeña no es otra especie eS el macho, mucho mas chico, y suele verse acompañando a la hembra en la misma tela con cuidado pues puede correr pelgro su vida ya que es comun se los devore despues de la copula

Of your two spider photos, this is the one I prefer. The composition is excellent. The diagonal is reinforced by the extended legs of the female, that creates tension and action. The neutral light background makes your subjects stand out. Sharpness is good. Great shot, Taba.

Oi Taba,mas que foto que ficou interessante!!
A luz vindo de baixo croiu uma situação de suspenso no ar porque mal e mal as teias aparecem.
Gostei das cores, do foco, da nitidez,composição e disposição do enquadramento!
Felicitações pelo teu trabalho!!
Bom final de semana,
Melina
