a rather fat garden spider

Another tricky choice to be made today: either fat spider or nice view of Craigmillar Castle. The spider won. I found it on the way home from work. It's been really good recently with lots of rather fat spiders sitting in their webs. Today I did have my dSLR, 105mm macro lens and flash with me. My wee Olympus just can't compete with this sort of shot (well, that's good).
