Arachnophobia

Almost ran into this big garden spider and his web while mowing. Just happened to see it in time to duck under it. Gives me the creepy crawlies to get their webs on me.
Thank you for viewing and commenting, it is appreciated.

He's a beauty - from a distance! Lovely shot.

Stunning! Fascinating animals, not doubt. I always have to overcome my fear if I wanna take a spider's photo. Would need a long lens ;)
To see the spider's face so "close" in the viewfinder makes my skin crawl. Although the spiders in Germany are totally harmless.

Lovely specimen and a superb capture of him. I, too, wouldn't like that to happen to me either.

Stunning! specimen

Nice closeup capture. I can't handle creepy-crawly's either,.but they are colorful and have interest patterns on their bodies when seeing them on photographs.

Great specimen and focus, but not a favorite of mine!!

I don't like walking into them either and we have quite a few around the house (but the hummingbirds like them so that's a good thing!). Good for you in grabbing the camera to take this shot- it's excellent!
