A Longjawed Spider
This particular spider, a longjawed spider, Tetragnatha, spins a horizontal web amid the herb tops. Here the spider is upside down on the underside of its web. One day, Crumby hopes to get a matching picture of the spider's top side. But for that to happen, this spider needs to flip over. That's because otherewise Crumby would need to actually crawl under the web placing his well worn and shorn noggin in close proximity to scratchy herb stems or fetid herb leaves. And then, squinting up through the optical viewfinder at the spider suspended in its web, Crumby would still need to focus. Yet the focal plane might already be too close to the spider for focus. What then? The average photographer Crumby would feel like a fool. Mercy! So hopefully, this spider regularly flips over.
