RE: Albino Spider

I'm not sure they can suffer from albinism, but they may be white after
molting. They tend to be very reclusive after molting as they are pretty
defenseless.

I think it's a European Garden Spider turned white. Taken with a 2/50mm
Summicron-R lens, I went back into the house to get my macro lens and of

course the beast had disappeared by the time I got back, about 1.5 
minutes! All Canon 20D with Leica lenses.

and a couple of flowers which have managed to survive the heatwave over 
the last couple of days

33 C in the shade yesterday (I make that 91.4 F ,if my school maths is 
correct: divide by 5, multiply by 9 and add 32 I think)
And a re-scanned Yorkshire Rose from many years ago
