Another Time Lapse Sequence

This time it is an orb weaver weaving its orb. This took a number of nights to determine the gap between photos and get the start timing right.

Interesting Andrew but It's a shame you didn't manage to get a raking light to illuminate the web itself a bit better.

I'm interested in suggestions on how to do that without lighting up the background. Also take into consideration that I'm taking a photo every 2 seconds.

I did use a SB-800 on a remote cable on the ground pointing up at an angle at the web.

After watching this video on the TV (32"), I think the main problem with the visibility of the web is the resolution of the web (no pun intended) version of the video. The lower half of the web is easily visible on the TV.
