Good shot of the spider crab Christian. I'm ready for lunch..a little crab salad or pasta tossed with tomatoes and crab. (And a nice glass of dry white wine!) Bravo.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

The frame's a little tight Christian, but otherwise I'd give you an A for a clear, & faithful photographic reproduction.

A "Crabby Spider," sounds like just my luck, Christian.
Wonderful shot.
