Never Cry Wolf (oct. 3)
I hope this spider does for you what it did for me. It scared the pants off of me. It's a fairly large Wolf Spider, and was hanging out in the doorjam to my house from the garage.
While shooting, up at an angle, slightly higher than my head, he was nervously tapping his legs, which was unsettling enough, but when you're looking through the viewfinder and he goes from tapping to LUNGING FORWARD at you, when you're already looking through a macro lens, plus a Kenko extension tube, it's downright freaky.
(of course, I shortly learned that this was nothing to fear, next to looking down at your LCD to check your shots, and then looking back up to see that said spider, in all of it's large fanged glory... is now gone. Time to do the shaky dance.)
Enjoy!
