Pictures of Nephila from Hong Kong

[fusion121]

These are Nephila maculata ( or so I think) from Tai Po Kau nature reserve in Hong kong, the largest I found was huge nearly 20cm leg span. The picture from the front is poor as I was nearly having a heart attack from walking up the side of a steep hill :8o
