Hello, Charlie. I have been expecting a post here from you. You have a nice, sharp image of the web-mistress herself. I can hardly wait for spider season and the emergence of the big orb weavers.

Charlie,
The lighting and detail on this spider is simply amazing and the larger version must be seen for a true appreciation of this image.
Well Done . . . :toast:

You are a man after my own heart RL. Glad you liked it and spiders are a big interest for me, so may post another before Saturday. Why don't you give us another?

Amazingly detailed shot, Charlie! The larger version is just a bit TOO realistic. . . :eek: Curious how big this spider is? I think I might tone down the bright spots in the background just a bit but overall a fantastic close-up of this spider. Well done!

Glad for those of you who like spiders and hope you others can forgive the shivers. :wink:

This spider is a big one, at about the size of an elongated quarter I'd guess.
