This little one looks familiar from the macro gallery. Well done, Howard.

Nice clear shot of this spider, Howard. The spider looks so clean and tidy, even with all that hair, compared to some critters. It is sitting on such a nice fluffy, pretty flower too. And the pastel background color works well with the spider and the purple flowers. I do believe you have actually created a pleasantly pretty spider image, Howard!

Wonderful photograph, Howard, but I am not sure I would call it "creepy." It's just too darn pretty.
Your fill flash sure does a great job at bringing out all the details and colors.

Like how you posed him at an angle; makes his perch a little more precarious... . Nice composition with enough space on the top and side with a great background.
