This is an orb weaver. We have similar ones here, but not exactly the same. This is a good clear shot of this one.
Here's a link if you have other photos and want to identify it.

It's pretty interesting to be able to look at her drawing and see that there is a crane just to the right out of the frame in your photo. It's like being able to see around the corner. This is a good moment to photograph. I agree that the walker sort of clutters up the scene. That's a full grown tug boat.

We have a lot of these here where I live because of the big oak trees in my yard. They are very sound oriented. If I am using a blower on an air hose, they will come to it like a moth to a light. They zero in on some of the frequencies, probably higher than we can hear. They come to a hand grinder as well.
You did a very nice job on the photograph.

This has an interesting POV, and there is a facet of curiosity about what the one model is looking at or thinking about.

This looks like an outtake from early film images, maybe the 1930's. The toning and ambiguity of the subject arouse my curiosity.

I like the way this is reduced to light and dark patterns and the receding leading lines. Only the little bit of light on the closest face gives a hint about which way anyone in the image is moving. It's shots like this that you can only get by having your camera with you everywhere you go.

That's superb! The way that the out of frame part of the flower is in focus helps even more with the illusion.

This looks like a very old place, with fascinating architecture. B&W makes this one go.

This one is outstanding! I saw a link to a photo contest recently, and the theme was "Animals Carrying Things". I wish I could remember where it was, or who sent me the link.
These birds are fun to watch as they interact with each other where there is a colony of them.

The grainy BG makes this look like an old B&W film photo. That's a good effect for this subject.
