Interesting. I just love the geometry of the web. There were 2-3 spiders in the web, and at least 2 of them looked different from the other. Not really sure why I didn't try to get a closer look at the spiders!

Very nice image. Lots of related genera that produce this kind of web, so hard to be more specific than family.
