I took this photo in the backyard where there were more spiders, you can even see a bit of the facade where the web was practically hanging in front. Because of the low depth of focus, you can no longer see the web, the wall in the background is even blurred. This spider hung in the shadow of the building so the photo is evenly exposed.
