Our neighbour

This little hole in the bottom of our garden is home to the worlds deadliest spider. Atrax robustus, the Sydney Funnel Web.
P6090337
More than deserved of their bad rep - they are as aggressive as they are deadly. They don't run for cover when poked with a stick or when you put your foot in a boot left outside. There is an antivenin but I'm told the bites are excruciating. In the last two weeks I've found a few around the house (so we'll spray) but this one is home as it repairs the webbed burrow overnight if I disturb it.

Next weekend I'll dig up the hole for you. Should make a good you tube.

A few of my most fav picks.
I'm leaning towards large extremely detailed B&W, mostly black with low angle light highlighting details on the skin and curves for single picks and colour for series of picks of the same girl/couple that tell a story.
