Found this handsome fellow the other evening.

I am not overly fond of spiders but I seem to be finding and more and more lately.

A very nice image Bruce, looks a little different from our Garden Spiders and we will have to wait a more month before we see them here again.

Frightening shot! I can feel the spikes all on its body, and this red, is it blood? Tell me where did you find this beast of hell, so I make sure I will never go there?

Great shot, and the colours really come out against the blurred background

And exactly just how big is this thing, probably a foot from top to tail.

As I know you have some nasty versions of these beasties down under...

The colors are vivid and the definition outstanding both lending to the impression of lethality.
