youch, that's a bigg'n. They are the one spider I definitely don't let stay in my observatory.

C'mon Bryan where's your guts mate? You let a mozzie land on your leg but won't let a red back near you - talk about soft. If it was me I would use the FSQ prime focus from about 400 metres for the same image scale .

Now for the serious stuff. Top shelf mate well done.

You're braver than me, that's for sure. Well done holding it together to get these.

Lots of these little babies trying to set up house in our shed at the moment.

A beautiful series of photos; she looks great against that colour (is it a brick?). She's probably eaten a few of her mates in her lifetime to get that plump!

Thanks for posting.
