Fantastic photo showing her eyes and how she’s using her pedipalps to help hold her egg sac. please consider changing your screen name. You wouldn’t want to be confused for being the photographer of my not – so – great photos. – TangledWeb 🙂

The only time I ever got such a shot was anesthetizing the spider and photo shoot on a small stage, and then fishh up with some photo stacking for depth of field.

So hard to pick a good name that hasn’t already been taken I think Black Widow would be suitable….Ill look into it

I once considered ‘Arachnophile’.But too close to our own late Lady Arachnophile, Amanda Howe.
