Default Well now that you mention it...

UNfrotunately, I don't have much to show off in the way of macro spiders, but perhaps someone can suggest a way to get better shots.

I kind of liked this one because you can see that the spider is eating a cricket if you zoom...



Not sure about this one... but its all I got!
