Originally posted by Rupert Spiders don't bother me, only two types are dangerous here, and the rest are mostly harmless. In Australia, they have all those killer spiders....that might bother me more, so I can't blame you. Nice composition on that shot, you got the effect well.

The vast majority of spiders in Australia aren't dangerous, and there's antivenene for those that are. There have been no fatalities since the antivenene was developed. Most importantly, you don't find the dangerous ones making webs in trees like this.
