Found this little Apache Jumping Spider hanging out in the library this morning. He was peering out from the middle of a stack of clean elections booklets. Apparently he takes his voting seriously...
It looks like it's wearing mascara I admire the detail you captured Dan, makes it look a lot bigger than it is.
I cannot believe I looked at yet another picture of a spider. But it is a GREAT shot. Did you use a macro lens? Or a telephoto from 100 yards away? I'da used the telephoto. Hell, I would not have taken the pic. I have relatives who look like him.
Oooooh, thanks for the reality check. I had been seriously thinking of moving to AZ when hubby retires. Nevermind!!!!!
Well I can't say spiders are a favourite creature of mine but I can appreciate the photograph. Just so long as he stays on my computer screen that's fine by me.
It's not spiders exactly that I have a problem with. I live in an area without anything venomous 'tall, so I'm easily intimidated! Does have kinda cute eyes, though.
