Very Big Spider

[Newfie]

Well here goes...I'm new to DPS - and to photography for that matter. I shot this one today in front of the National Gallery of Canada. Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

Where is this spider at? I like the image the perseptive is really cool. Do you have any more shots of the spider?

From the thumbnail I was wondering where you found a spider that large and got under it, lol! Nice perspective and composition.

I've heard of giant amazon spiders but never expected them to be this large

I think that's a great perspective! Nice positioning of the spider's body and the legs. The textures on the legs seems well represented.

Reference for other members: It looks like this.

Amazing I would have never thought it was that small from the picture it looks massive.

for those of you in London you can see it outside the Tate Modern atm.

This is a great shot! I would almost like to see it exposed a bit less, but that's just my interest in the photo getting my imagination going. Nice composition!

Thank you all very much for the kind, and encouraging comments.
