Speckled Spider

Inspired by other Blipfoto spiders, I had a fun time trying to photograph them around the house and garden today. F was trying to be helpful in pointing them out too!
I was intrigued by this one, as his web was all but invisible, and his legs and body look almost striped. He seemed to be suspended in mid air!
But although I like spiders, I am woefully ignorant of their names - so a little research may be necessary if I find any more!
Any information will be gratefully received!
