Spider for the Day
I think this is the same guy I saw on the basement stairs a week or two ago. The basement's okay, the kitchen not so much. I sent him outside.
I figured out a way to get better closeups: bump up the resolution on the camera (10 megapixels gives you an image roughly 3000 pixels square) and then take the picture at a distance that will get you a clear image. Then when you have the image on the computer, pick out the portion of interest using the cropping tool. Presto, real clear, and pretty close. The dimensions of the image here are only about 1/3 the size of the cropped image, which are only about 1/3 of the original. (The file size of this image is just over 20KB, the original is over 900KB.) Clicking on the image will take you to the full size cropped image, where you can see every hair on his (her?) legs.
Update March 2016 replaced missing picture.
BTW,I hate spiders. That being said, LOOK AT THE LITTLE "ALIEN MAN" on his hiney- looks like he's attached to a cord from his head to the spider's ugly dmn back- like a tether. Do you see it??-Sharon
