yeah, I get the whole thing about them being good guys...and I don't much mind the little fellas.

However, GIANT HAIRY FANGED MONSTERS LIKE THAT ONE...well, I'll just hand Kraken my FAL

I took this with the 5060 before it got flooded, it was actually the first real picture I took with it...

Easy creature to photograph

What a great shot of that way cool spider. How big was he and is that kind of spider common where you are?

cheers,

If you deep fry the big hairy ones, they taste just like shrimp.

Um, thanks for sharing, Mark.

The one I posted was a Banana Spider, its about 1.5" long(including legs), they get 3-4" long sometimes. They are common in my area, we actually have 3 hanging around our porch.

Not sure what alcina's spider is... Sure is a hairy mofo

Super-macro is fun!

Thanks for the ideas Mark, maybe it will be a bit harder to get a couple of kilos to fry.... especially after you have to pluck all the fur

 

[SueMermaid]

Why go through all the pain of plucking when you can just use Nad's?

 

[sharkdiver00]

I wish we had more spiders than cockroaches in TX, or bigger spiders that would feed on the yucky roaches..... Maybe the one on alcina's pic culd be motivated
