Hello all,

You might have figured out that I love spiders apart from orchids and other living creatures!!! And because trapping them is something I detest, I like photoshooting them!!! Here is what I found!!! :)

1-2. Eresus sp. male (he was trembling and I could not get a sharp photo!!)
3-4. Might be Misumena sp. female (she always hide in the leaves...very difficult to get a shot)
5-8. ???

They're beautiful! Your photos are great. I'm a bit afraid of spiders, but can't help but admire them for their beauty and the fact they eat nasty bugs in my garden. :)
 
Why an arachnophobe would click on this I am not sure...but I did.
Nice photos...and spiders are neat...but
shudder :)
 
Great! I love spiders....and I refuse to kill them in my home...I figure they eat the bugs that really bother me.

...I have found the best way to deal with spiders is to find the nearest cup...catch said spider in said cup...call significant other to dispose of spiders in a humane manner (unless its winter, I assume putting them outside then isn't so humane). If significant other is not around turn said cup over and leave spider until they return. :)
 
I am glad you liked the photos!!! It is important NOT to try to kill or exterminate something that we are afraid of or detest or do not understand! :)

I'd be happy to send all my spiders to you!!!

:rollhappy::rollhappy: I cannot afford the shipping cost...:p however I said that I do not like having them like in a collection or traping them...:)
 
Haha...!!! Eric, one is female and the other is a male I guess judging from size!!! And the male became a meal as usual in spiders!
(Although the one alive has its mouth leg accessories ending in a punch structure, that means it is a male, but i cannot see it clearly!)
