Valentine's Eyes (and it's not for arachnaphobes...)

Paul Iddon

Well, this spider is on the lookout for some Valentines day loving...

There was a male as well but he scooted in an instant leaving me face to face with this lovely lady.

Tripod mounted, cable release, two extension tubes on the Siggy 105.

C&C as always appreciated.

Hopefully the bugs club will be in full swing soon...
