now that's proper scary!

 

[Pete Askew]

Very nicely done Richard. As Chris says, scary.

Well spotted and snapped. I think this is an image that looks much better big. Viewing it in Flickr makes a big (excuse the pun) difference.

 

[Pete Askew]

Wow, it does doesn't it?

 

[Richard McMellon]

There are also a couple of views from the side on flickr.
I think it is Larinioides cornutus by the way. Definitely a male though...I got that

Surely you guys ain't scared of spiders?!

 

[Pete Askew]

Not in the slightest. Fascinated more.

 

[Richard McMellon]

That's ok then...I'll find some more

 

[Pete Askew]

Keep 'em coming (but use the creepy crawlie warning tag - Chris is a delicate sort and it'll keep Davie's nerves intact! )

Cunning little critter, and that spidie hiding away in the dandelion has a few tricks too.....

Nice find Richard

Yipes...nice find and nice shot. I'm no whimp...I'm not afraid of this little thing...really...I'm not. Not even a little...really.
