HELL NO!!

When it got off the log.... I called the spider wrangler (Guyer) over to reposition it.

I wouldnt even get close enough for it to jump on me... cause it would have been over with at that point. My only hope would have been that one of he ladies would have given me mouth to mouth and chest compressions. Dont need no hairy man kissin on me :) .... cause my heart most likely would have stopped mid beat.

I dont do spiders ..... period..... end of story.

Great pics Kevin. And if that spider would have attacked you I'm sure Jeff or Mike would have come to your rescue...after they were done laughing hysterically of course. That's what friends are for right?:lol:

Nice shots! What lense are you using for the close ups?

Southern Wolf
01-05-2009, 12:58 PM
For that shoot... I used a Tamron 28/300mm macro.... and for the extreme close up I used an extension tube and 1.4x tele with the lens.
