This really cool spider is guarding my house it seems! I shot
these right outside my front door! :crazy:
He’s about the size of a quarter with his legs out.
Even with a flash at night, these turned out really well. I’m really
happy with them. As I was watching, it caught a few bugs and
I watched it wrap them up and kill em. I got 1 good shot of that, #3 I think. Enjoy -
that is some national geographic stuff…really good…you mind if I use one for a photo manip…? You’ll get the credit…as the photographer…BTW that is a creepy *** looking spider what kind is it?
jubba you made me laugh with your hammer comment. :beam:
I spent a couple hrs searching 100’s of websites for what kind it
is, and the best I can come up with is a Brown Orb-Weaver.
Which is really vague, since there’s 100’s Orb-Weaver species. shrug oh well.
One of the cool things about it tho, is it tears down and rebuilds
its web every day !! We watched for a bit again last night
as it was starting over. So cool to see. (Sorry jubba)
I only looked at the first pic, coz, like Jubba, I don’t like spiders either. I did look at the bug ones in your other thread, and those were nice, so I guess these 'll be too so they don’t need my looking to approve of them
Please tell me you smashed that ugly bastard with a stomping boot after the photo shoot!!! Or hairspray and a lighter, or like Jubba said, a hammer. But yes, please kill it, I hate spiders, they can burn in hell for all eternity!
haha you guys are funny. WIthout the spiders, though, we’ll
be infested with moths, millars, and all sorts of other bugs! I’d
prefer the 1 spider and let him live his life where he sits.
3d-iva - I was trying to be original with the name, but 'Venom’
stuck. Oh well…at least he’s named I s’pose.
El_Thierro - haha that’s ok. Thx for looking at all. =)
No I did not kill him, nor do I intend to kill him. You guys are afraid
of a little thing like a spider. You are so much bigger than him,
and what did he ever do to you? …hmmph you all are a bunch of
wussies!

Well, I am here for your enjoyment! Actually, even tho they terrify me, I am facsinated by them. I always watch the Discover Channel when it comes on about spiders and spider bites and the like. Its like a horror movie…
