Beautiful texture and a great capture of the spider, love the stone under it. V

Very cool this big one. I prefer enjoying it in your image rather than live. "V"

It does look pretty big! Very striking capture against the boulder with all its interesting textures. .V.

Very nice capture! My daughter had one crawl onto her leg in a creek once. The scream was heard for miles and I don't think she's waded since. :-)
