On Encounters with Spiders

©pralinanmi
Spiders...nonewithstanding their role as tricksters...have never bothered me much...living in the mountains...I've learned to leave them alone to go about their way...as I go about mine. This Boulder spider...dangling from an invisible web not too far from my head...I must admit was kind of scary...he was huge...hairy...striped like a tiger...and looked mean as heck....
As soon as I snapped the first shot however...he sped up his web towards the ceiling...showing once again that most creatures that humans fear....would...in fact... rather just avoid the potential confrontation...........
