21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Neoscona oaxacensis
In this photograph, I showcase a specimen of a spider from the Neoscona oaxacensis species, resting on its own spiderweb with the sky in the background. This specimen clung tightly to its web to survive a windy day in the Mexican plains. The colors and the light reflecting from its own web can be appreciated in detail.
