GOLDEN SILK

A Tropical Orb Weaver sits atop her deadly work of art. The effect of this photo was achieved by light painting different sections of the web and the spider with a small maglite. Tropical Orb Weavers make very large and ornate webs that they build at night and then take down in the morning. Despite their size and fearsome appearance, Tropical Orb Weavers are quite harmless to humans.

My name is Mark Andrew Thomas and I'm a photographer and filmmaker currently residing in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. I grew up in Florida right next to the Everglades and although I photograph a wide variety of subjects and locations, the Florida Everglades will always be my first love. In my career I've had the honor of working with the NatGeoWild Channel, Animal Planet, Discovery Science Network, ABC HD, and other worldwide media outlets. I hope you'll find something here that speaks to you and brings you joy, rekindles your sense of wonder, or brings back a great memory of a place you've been to. Thank you for visiting! ~ Mark Andrew Thomas
