These monstrous orbweavers were pretty common in New South Wales and Queensland, and their taxonomic affinities are unclear. They were often found with Ariamnes.

This is a pretty common scene when photographing jumping spiders. A fraction of a second later, the spider has disappeared from the viewfinder which means I will be spending my next few minutes trying to coax her out from inside my lens hood.
These little critters are the ones you can see around the house. Probably just a few millimeters at their largest.
Always wanted to take a macro shot of one of them and now I have!
