Thats an ugly looking spider.  Nice pictures though!  Reminds me of my bug collection for my 10th grade biology project.  Somewhere I have a book on insects and arachnids.

TIP (for whatever its worth to you): If you're going to be taking pics of bugs, it would be cool to know what we're looking at.  :D

Technically the arachnid isn't referred to as a "Bug". Well when i take pictures of those critters i usually darken out the background and focus on the animal. Especially when it's on a flower.

Very nice [smiley=thumbsup.gif] I collect insects so i truly love bug pictures.

TIP: Don't take pictures of insects that are dead, wounded, or just laying there. ;)
