A Golden Orb Weaver spider at the National Zoo.

Handheld in a very dim setting.

Until you told me it was a spider, I didn't know. I thought it was a tunnel and and archway of some kind, wit some very cool lights.

Demon spider, heading back to its lair to wipe clean its bloodied limbs after a feast. Thanks for the nightmare, Jeffrey, geez. ;)

I don't really see anything but I like the colors, contrast and movement of it. Happy Holidays, Jeff.

I saw a spider, but then I talked myself out of it. This is definitely a great spider picture. Very energetic composition, great sense of movement (and some menace).

Alien torso x-ray. You can tell it's alien by the elongated neck. Government know you have this?

Looks like a spider on fire. :) Actually, the web looks a little like a body of water reflecting sunlight and the front leg leading up to the joint look like a shooting projectile coming out of the water.

I saw what looks like the stem of a leaf. Probably a close estimate of what the spiders prey sees.

Well, when I looked at this image I saw a spider, although I thought that it was in my imagination and not the actual subject of the image. I like the way the diagonals lead my eye around.
