Thanks Richard. At one time I couldn't look at a spider but now "lovely spider" makes sense! :-)

Thanks Kathy. I think a spider bit me last week. I woke up in the middle of the night with an inflamed ear lobe!
Carol Senske
A marvelous photo! Love how you captured the stabilimentum and the spider is gorgeous:>).
Doris Potter replied:
Hi Carol. You know your spider stuff! I just learned that word while reading up on these spiders and so I tried to make sure it was in the shot.
Shari Bailey
Wow!! Great shot! Scary spider! =)
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks Shari. Believe it or not I have a spider phobia but photographing them helps me with it. Although I accidentally got too close to one near my leg and I screamed.
April Wietrecki
Beautiful shot! I love these, but none of mine have turned out so well (yet)
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks April. I'm sure you'll get one soon! I was lucky to find five spiders so I was able to pick the one in the best position.
