I've been taking pictures since I was a very young girl using whatever camera mom was using at the time. When I was 16 our family met another family who had relocated from England. Their son was a photographer and soon after we met I was cashing in my bonds from grandma and purchasing my Nikon FM2 (which I still use). After graduating from high school I started doing other things and the photography took a back seat. Almost 20 years later two professional photographers entered my circle of friends and they inspired me to pick up that camera again. I don't know yet where this is taking me but it's a passion that's driving me into the unknown. For now though I'm just so happy to be creating again and I love this site and all the kindness I've been shown in here. Renderosity ROCKS!!!!!!!!
On a personal note I'm a stay at home mom to four kids which I adopted and who are the willing subjects of many a picture LOL. Also I now have an awesome step son. There's three grown kids out in the world too and two grandbabies ;-) YUP we are busy people!!!!

YES and they are living under my new home! If it's not earthquakes it's black widows EEEEEEEK! Their webs are SCARY LOOKING!
Biffowitz
My only advice would be ......... don't annoy them! Dangerous and pretty freaky looking huh? kind of hard to mistake their shape, which is a good thing I guess. Cool shot!!

Actually Black Widows are over rated as their poison is concerned. (Like Turantulas) It's the Brown Recluse (Violin Spider) that is truly lethal very lethal here in the states.(Their poison attacks the nervous system directly) And yes , Black Widows are horrible web designers lol:) Cheers!

Oh yes the wonderful Brown Recluse... a friend of mine was bit by one at my home on the north coast and it quickly started attacking his body... luckily he survived the ordeal with little damage. And yes it is very interesting indeed as to the black widow's "looks" As soon as I saw it fly out with my broom stroke while sweeping dead leaves from the doorway to the "Under the house space" I shouted to my mate "IS THIS ONE OF THOSE!?" LOL - hard to mistake them for anything else.

The little terror really got your heart pounding, didn't she?

"La Veuve Noire"... Good capture I think, of that creepy little creature.
