Thanks Bruce, you are right, the only happy ones I find are the ones feeding on something.

Can't resist but to take a look at this shot again...appeals to me.
Btw imho, I would think a brighter background can bring out the subject even more. Nevertheless still a great shot.

Cheers.....

Maybe he's worried about the huge spider with one eye staring at him?

Nice shot.

I'll try that idea, thanks, this shot appeals to me as well, I think its because this is the angle a bug would be at, watching that spider walk right up.

not sure what a happy spider looks like, not sure i'd want to meet one either. Interesting angle and a colorful subject.
