Funny thing about this quote is that technically, if I read right, the author would trust something with six eyes... ironically, spiders from the Sicariidae family (like the Sicarius and Loxosceles genera) are among the most feared spiders in the world and they have six eyes! 6D & 70D

Jul 28, 2010 15:46 | #8 I was taking a shot of a huntsman spider once. It filled the entire frame. Well, when it went to move I was put back and let out a little scream. Okay a big scream. But I was alone and it was manly scream. I'm in Canada. Isn't that weird!
