They Only Come Out At Night
Contest Number: 109 Contest Theme: Night Time is the Right Time Lens: Sigma 105mm f2.8 EX DG Camera: Pentax K-500 Shutter Speed: 1/60s Aperture: F14

This spider has been hanging out near my house for over a month and has grown quite a bit since I first noticed it, and night time is the right time to shoot it as it only comes out to build its web in the dark. Sometimes I only check it out to see its progress, but I have shot it several times, and with renewed interest since I recently traded for a Sigma 105mm macro. This one I took this morning (9-3-2015). Though it would seem large and creepy if it were crawling on your arm, it's probably less than an inch across. It's creepy enough though.
