April 12, 2008 – Skull Head Spider


I was shooting some macro shots this afternoon to take advantage of a Canon 40D that I was able to use for a couple days. This image is a macro shot of a small spider in our garage. His body is only about an 1/8 of an inch, so I didn’t see what he really looks like until after I took the shots.

Most stunning is his head looks exactly like a skull. Second most stunning is that his entire body looks like it’s made of glass.

I’m looking up what kind of spider it is and will post when I know. I’m sure it’s closely related to daddy long legs.
