I hate spiders II

[mjs1973]

This is kind of a sequel to this thread I started a couple years ago. This afternoon my wife came home and told me she had a surprise for me. She handed me a glass jar with this in it. I'm not a big fan of spiders, but this thing had the coolest markings on it's back that I have ever seen. The marking reminded me of a scorpion. I took a few photos but then had to leave town. When we returned, the spider had created an egg sack and is no longer as large as it was when these were taken.

Here is a shot of mom with her egg sack.

Wow, great photos. I know what you mean about spiders, but I love to photograph then

I don't mind spiders and those are some great images!

if the spider is small, I'm ok (1/4" is ok )
when they start to get big, then I do not like them

it is very interesting to shoot a tiny little spider and see all the detail on a 100% crop
