This morning, I looked in the corner where we had found her yesterday but Ari was not there. I visually the line between wall and ceiling to the next corner, our “flood corner” deluged by our upstairs neighbour. This is also a favoured haunt of Ari.

Ari in the corner

Yes! There she is. Owing to the building’s architectural peculiarities, this corner is curved, not square. Perhaps she likes that feature.

To take the photo, I needed to illuminate the area but without using flash as Ari’s reactions show that she doesn’t like it.

Yesterday, I tried using the iPhone’s torch function with the camera but found that if I switched on the torch and then opened the camera, the torch closed down. This time I tried opening the camera first and then the torch. This worked and I was able to take the above photo. But, guess what: since I did that, neither of us has managed to run the torch and the camera at the same time! Making it work must have been some sort of fluke.

Back to “cooperative photos” (see Spider Ari reappears)!
