- Info One of the spider's legs which must have come off during a fight with an insect prey is woven into the funnel web (She keeps on adding layers to her non-sticky web). She is a super-fast runner, so doesn't need the web to be sticky. Favourite foodː grasshoppers. Focus-stacked from 17 images. No FPs of this family.

- Support I am not so keen on the frame and would probaby get rid of it but otherwise looking good --Poco a poco (talk) 19:55, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I think the context is important as this species makes its tunnel in long grass. I feel the grass stems are like a portalː Come into my parlour, said the spider to the fly... Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:41, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
- Support Awesome -Killarnee (C•T•U) 23:02, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
- Support IMO the foreground seems distracting because it's blurry. If you had included it in your focus stacked DoF, perhaps the composition would have appeared better -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:03, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- Support but agree with poco. Consider offering two versions - one with the green grass for context and another with just the spider surrounded with all the detritus from several insect lunches. To me, the spider only version would have more wow. --GRDN711 (talk) 00:36, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

- Done I have cropped out some foreground Poco a poco Basile Morin GRDN711, but left the green 'portal'. Charlesjsharp (talk) 07:48, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
