Thanks Oh. Your spider against a different background would look much better. Don't you just hate it when your subjects do not cooperate?

You don't know how long I waited for that little athlete to stop running around frantically, even after I got him off me–use left hand to remove spider from right arm without injuring him, use right hand to remove spider from left arm without injuring him, repeat, repeat–and onto a wooden surface with crummy lighting at that. Finally he rested on the wood. Getting a fix on a 2-mm spider as a moving target was just too hard.

You are much more patient than I. Good job. I most likely would have sent him to spider heaven.

Noooo! I put him back outside afterward. It's time for him to keep searching for females.

Here are two I grabbed with my most hated camera (my cellphone)!
