Spider

by Horst

A nice colourful non toxic spider. I found it while camping in the Bush.
Taken with my SMC Pentax-A 50mm f2.8 Macro.

Regards, Horst

I agree... lovely looking spider... shape says Argiope sp. to me.... some sort of large orb weaver.... I'll hazard my Australian friends down the road will know!
I'll point the one who will here and try and get you a name.
