Here's another one to scare you...

[Kobione]

Hubby went to fill a watering can from a tap at the front of the house and this popped out of the can and jumped on to a Geranium leaf:

 

 

Yes, another Huntsman. Not quite as long legged as the other, but a bit more solid in body.  He scooted round a leaf and then peeped at me:

 

 

Up the wall he went, just posing for a second, and then disappeared:

 

 

 

Must be a spider sort of day - or two!!!

brilliant captures kobione.....love shot number two, he looks startled lol

 

keep them bug shots coming kobione, we are still waiting for our bugs to appear due the flipping weather we have had..

[JohnP]

Kobione these are great shots... nice and clear with good DOF. I have always found Panasonic cameras excellent for these type of shots.

[Kobione]

John these were taken with the TZ, when I went inside to grab the FZ that's when he disappeared!

I knew you used Panasonic cameras (I've had four, still got two) and I was quite impressed with these shots so I checked the EXIF data to see which camera you had taken the shots with.

And another reason why you'll never see me in you country!!

[Guest]

fantastic images but I'm glad we dont get spiders that size in our country

[fuzzyedges]

If that popped out of a can I was holding it wouldnt be the spider that jumped

[NannyFerret]

I would rather have spiders than dirty flies.

Loving these spider and insect shot Kiobone.

Don't mind spiders but not sure I could cope with these

That saved me asking "Erm, how the hell did you know what camera was used?" !! I use the FZ38 myself, and it will take some great pictures, if you don't mind noise in low light and/or extreme zoom.
