Kallol says:
The Green lynx spider is found on all kinds of shrub-like plants throughout most parts of India and surrounding countries. Although they are very selective about their host plants, I found them in different habitats and even very close to the web created by other spiders.
I found this tiny green lynx spider near a large web created by a giant wood spider on an afternoon. I used a multiple exposure (with a single RAW file) for 2 simultaneous shots. I took my second shot in relatively longer exposure to create a dramatic background using the spider web and the soft backlight by the evening sun. The photo was taken in Singur, West-Bengal in India.
About Kallol:
India
Kallol is an ardent admirer of nature and a wildlife photographer by passion. Apart from bird photography Kallol enjoys getting lost in the wilderness with his camera gear. Born and brought up in the serenity of a countryside home in West Bengal gave this spirited, jovial guy ample scope to observe and feel nature palpably. Fascinated with the fiesta of colours he started photography almost 11 years ago shooting photos of birds in his backyard.
Capturing the true essence of nature in its varieted forms has always been his forte. He believes in telling stories through his images. His venture in this realm of photography has brought him various national and international acclamations. Many of his unique and outstanding frames have been exhibited and also published in different magazines worldwide.
He believes his journey has just started and many more frames are yet to be captured. Nowadays he is busy with his experiments with different angles creating visual impact. His ultimite goal is that his images might work as a catalyst to spread awareness among people about the importance of conservation of nature and its inmates.
