Shadowy Spider

Crafty Green Boyfriend took this shot of a spider in my parent's garden last month. Click on it to enlarge it! If you don't like spiders, you may prefer the shadow shot I posted on Over 40 Shades here.

Wow, what an excellent picture! I'm fond of spiders. Used to have a Chilean rose tarantula as a pet before she went to the Happy Cricket Hunting Ground a few years ago.

Dear Juliet, I like spiders very much, BUT only photos of them like this one of yours.

I am trying to really start a debate on submssion matters in my blog.
You are the first one I am inviting to it.

Creepy spiders have creepy shadows, twice the scare. Very nice posting.

The shadow of this Arachnapod makes her double in size. The eight-legged wonder is thinking about her next meal. Looking impressive jut sitting there...

Spiders are OK, as long as they don't string their webs across walkways!

Great one for the Halloween season!

I think the spider's shadow is more scary than the actual. Yikes!

Thanks for your visit. Warm greetings from Florida!
