Her Parlour...


...was my family room.

You can see her in full-size here.

She was found by my children on the family room carpet. She was about the diameter of a quarter, so big for a spider in your home, but not huge.

I took her outside on the front sidewalk and got a nice shot of her. If you look closely you can see at least six eyes.

How many eyes does a spider have?

spec-freakin-tacular.

I love the focus on this, with the really narrow depth of field. The spider itself (esp the face) is razor-sharp, and the foreground and background nicely soft.

And I thought spiders had 8 eyes, but maybe it's variable. I'm too lazy to google it for your lazy ass.

Great shots. Love the insect photos.
