User's notes
This Garden Orb Weaver was making a web at the base of a gum tree. The spider also seemed to have the web anchored to some grass stalks. Because the web came out from the tree to the grass stalks I was able to easily see both the front and back of the web, to get a top and bottom shot of the spider.
