"This beautiful eight-legged lady spent the best part of summer in our back garden. She made a new orb-shaped web every night (I understand that she eats the web in the early morning hours and sleeps the day away close to her web location, although I never was up early enough to see this). Spiders of this species (Eriophora transmarina) are quite large, and relatively common in Australia, and will bite when provoked. I used hand-held DSLR camera with inbuilt flash to take this photo, giving me nice detail o both spider and web and good contrast". Andrew Rate on Unsplash

"They say your photography should capture more than what you saw, but how you felt in that moment. Embarking on a thousand-mile road trip to Grand Tower, Illinois, a small town on the banks of the great Mississippi River. Nervous and excited to make the most of the event, I set up my tripod and put on the solar filter just before first contact. The moon covering more and more of the sun while I fired away on the shutter release. The air became cooler, the sky grew darker, and then… majesty. Over two minutes of wonder; a 360 degree sunset and the most awe-inspiring sight ever to behold."
