we were waiting to be seated at a restaurant I noticed her crawling/walking to another business when I snapped this.

Had a great few days on this beach, one of the best I have ever visited.

I got a really narrow DOF as this tarantula crawled practically onto my camera (yes, friends, I was on the ground with him). The bokeh was fine by itself, but I was spurred on by a comment on yesterday's tarantula from Sonora Guy that these guys might be related to Vulcans. They do look other-worldly! Or possibly... they look like miniature robots, exploring other worlds... So I texturized the foreground and background blur with a photo from NASA's public archives of photos taken by the Mars Rover. The title quote is famous - from NASA administrator Sean O'Keefe at the successful landing of the Rover as we resumed exploration of the red planet. There's a lotta work ahead for this hairy little rover!

Not sure of the location of this, as got very lost trying to find it. A great day had here and definetly worth the visit. The locals in charge of this area were incredibly great fun.
