This tiny spider is trying to escape from my shallow DoF on the wall.
Note: It has a funny looking expression on its face (better seen large).

Not long ago I started to pay close attention to spiders. They have 8 eyes and their distribution and relative sizes vary between species. Some of them are weird, some spooky and some really funny!

Thanks!

They are just everywhere you look and some of them are simply interesting subjects!

Thanks Sheldon!

Angela and Mike,
Thanks for taking the time to look at the picture and comment.
When I first saw it walking up and down the wall I knew it could become a nice subject.
I went back, grabbed the camera and followed it for a while, experimenting with DoF.
I think the resulting keeper is decent.
I'm glad you also found it funny!
