Artist's Comments

This is a Sydney Funnelweb (Atrax robustus), one of the world's most venomous spiders. They have huge fangs, but if left alone they won't bother us. This one is politely telling me to go away.

Cool!

Ok, just kidding ;) Your DoF and lighting in this is wonderful, as usual. I love how the fangs are placed centrally in the frame.

Lucky shot. I know these guys can be really nasty. Luckily there are no very venomous spiders in my area :)
