If You're Afraid...

...of spiders, then you will not want to click on this photo. I saw this as I was taking a walk the other day. My brain couldn't process what I was seeing, so I bent in reaaaally close to figure it out.

Shudder.

Anyway, if you have a strong stomach and little things like the circle of life don't bother you, then click away!

Not a big spider fan, but I didn't mind this one, it is so pretty - now if it had dark, wiggly hairy legs I might not have clicked...

I will definitely SCREAM if a spider even LOOKS like it is coming my way, but I love looking at them close up in photos...this is a really cool one! Thanks!

pg, i'm the exact opposite. the hairy ones don't bother me...maybe because they some more mammalian? it's these smooth, alien ones that make me back up a half step or two.

c_r, no problem. I was wondering whether to post it or not, but being one step removed from the reality of watching it unfold kind of helps put it into a better perspective for me. It make me wonder how those wildlife documentarians feel when they keep the cameras rolling on some of those grisly hunter/hunted scenes.

I will let our sister, T, know not to look at this page.
