Spider

I was playing with some old lavender when I nearly walked into this little chap. Had to use the flash but he didn't seem bothered. He is 23mm from top to bottom with his legs bent like this. Best viewed large if you dare :-)

oooh he is fantastic..I love him!

Great capture and I'm interested that you used flash. I think spiders are sensitive to noise - such as my dog barking when I'm trying to get a shot of one!

A fine garden spider, lovely detail

[Brian Wright]

Great detail.

That is a great capture. I'm not sure I would want to get that close. I know spiders are known to jump long distances. Definitely a Fav!

[Gerry]

great close up

Had to fav this. I've tried and tried to get a decent spider shot but just can't manage it. What's your secret?

[Néfertiti]

C'est incroyable, Très professionnel!

He looks like he's about to crawl off my screen...
