Spotted this crab spider sitting very nicely on top of a potentilla seed pod. Last shot at 5:1.

The stereogram is awesome though I have been looking at it too long and I’m afraid my eyes are going to stay that way. OUCH!!!


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.
