Our toiletspider revisited · 10:18 PM

Yesterday, I posted a macro photo of a spider that is living in our toilet (Kiss Me).
Yesterday evening, I tried to make some new portraits of this natural beauty, and I
think I had some better results now. So, here is a new try to document the
character of this male of this house spider Tegenaria atrica.

EDIT: On the Dutch forum, I was told there were some nasty spots on both sides of the spider. Don't see them here, but in this pic I tried to wash them away...

Nice shot! Good example of the pedipalps on a male.

Man, that is one creepy looking spider. If he was in my toilet I probably would have jumped through the ceiling. lol

Anyway, this is a really great macro shot as you captured a great amount of detail.

Oh no! Not more pedipalps! Another excellent sharp job. I was out doing some macros today, but not of arachnids.
