Itsy Bitsy Spider

I read in a photography magazine that we pass by many a photo right in our own back yards and that anybody should be able to find at least three things worthy of a snap right on their own property. So, with camera in hand off I went trouncing about my little part of the world. Here is the first of three things I found. Canon 50D.

A very handsome guy Momma (or is it a lady?).
Don't think however that my wife will have the same opinion about that, lol.
I'm curious for the two other ones, Pat.

Each leg almost looks like a snake! Nice horror shot Momma - you have shown us more than three things already - cats, ducks. flowers etc. etc.

You are off to a good start Owd Momma. The Temple Triplets stopped by the other day. I should have taken a photo.
It looks like the spider is on the old torture rack.
Good post.

Even without the waterspout he's still a beauty. I have no problems with spiders - it's snakes that give me the creeps.

Ooh!... I *think* this is a spider in the "Argiope" family. I found some at my college a few years back and submitted some photos to an entomologist to figure out what it was. Gorgeous spider :)

Great close up of this spider Pat - I dont mind spiders but they hate me and have bitten me more than once with horrible results requiring hosital treatment so I steer clear of them
