This guy was hanging out under the lip of the otto bin just waiting for me to have his portrait done...
This fellow was on the wall inside my house. Although I have close encounters with many arthropods and many of those are large and capable of inflicting injury, I remain "fearful" of spiders, especially large ones. I understand them. I respect them. But I guess I have a genuine irrational apprehension about them. At the very least, I get very nervous in their presence.
Nonetheless, after taking this shot and a couple of close angles, I was braced and reaching my spare hand out for the mandatory hand-next-to-the-giant-spider-on-the-wall-proof-of-manliness shot, when it bolted. I abandoned that mission once my heart restarted, but was able to relocate the spider outside via the biggest-glass-jar-possible-and-slip-of-paper technique (which was traumatic for me in itself).
Either way, taking all likely hysterical exaggerations into account, it would have fitted on my open hand to the last finger joints.

It was a treat to see this beautiful spider in the afternoon in Cunderdin, Western Australia wandering around when it was 39C.
Huntsman? Sorry I didn't get an eye arrangement or underneath, I was distracted by other special insects around.

Every day a new space bike.
every day being an inexact sort of every day, and also new, since it's an update remake of flic.kr/p/2a4sNh5
Our pet for a few days. Only when he (she?) decided to live on the bedroom wall did we decide to re-locate it outside...
I'm not sure I should admit to having sex on the beach (cocktails you pervs) for breakfast but that's how we roll in SL right ?

Like other arachnids, spiders are unable to chew their food, so they have a mouth part shaped like a short drinking straw that they use to suck up the liquefied insides of their prey. However, they are able to eat their own silk to recycle proteins needed in the production of new spider webs.

A Huntsman spider in our bathroom. It was sitting nice and still so I couldn't resist grabbing the camera...
We get a few Huntsman spiders wandering into the house each year, and they all get named Harry. This one was in our living room, where they are preferred. There's nothing better than having a natural barrier to cockroaches and other unwanted house guests.
Happy Arachtober!
Kept this one under wraps for a long time. Here it is. Those are 16" / 406.4mm Chainstays btw...
Build is a mix of road and mtn. components weighing in around 19lbs.
Retroshift handles the shifting duties. Killer setup!!
Probably Holconia neglecta. Body about 20 mm long, but those legs...! It had not moved position for at least the hour while I was away down in Joffre Gorge nearby. Karijini National Park, Western Australia.

a large house spider called the huntsman spider. just as i was about to prepare my breakfast this morning out comes this giant spider from under the pans to my big surprise. in my youth i would have whacked it and the story is over, however, with age and wisdom i have learned to take nothing but pictures, from a mountaineers creed. just respecting life!
