Oh John...what a icky and beautiful spider shot Great detail and color...ewwwwww!

[Susan C Clow]

What a great shot John, I'm not really afraid of spiders but honestly wouldn't want to tangle with this one. I react badly to spider bites so don't like to be around them for that reason. Lovely shot.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Wonderful shot John! Terrific light. Intimidating looking little creature!

[Raymond Milsted]

Great capture - the light through the legs is spectacular.
