Larger - _TNY_0528
My mother-in-law's garden has loads of juvenile raft spiders (Dolomedes fimbriatus) during the summer - but I extremely rarely find any adults - which is unfortunate as it is one of the largest spiders we have in Sweden.
This one, which my wife found in a potted corn/maize plant, is not yet adult, but it was still significantly larger than the regular ones.
I (by accident) scared her out of the corn/maize and she landed on the patio and tried out some sort of threat display with front legs and fangs lifted, but soon gave that up and just posed nicely for as many shots as I wanted.
