As children, many of us are taught to be scared of spiders and all things ‘creepy crawly’ – regardless of how tiny the little creature may be or how innocent it may be also. I look at the face of this tiny spider and can only think how sweet and cute it looks, yet once upon a time I had a different view. What changed me? Simply getting to know it and others like it.
Fear can drive us all to do things we may later regret. I strive to overcome my fears….step by step….or is it by reaching out a hand perhaps….

Nice shot, but it does creep me out a little. I like spiders because they eat all of the other bugs that might invade my home, but we still have an uneasy relationship.
I much prefer to meet the spiders out of doors than in my house although having said that, I’ve a huntsman sharing one room at the moment.
The face may be cute…. it’s those legs, and how FAST they can be!! Great photo, though (as always)!!
Thanks Holly! Yes, they do have to be fast, that’s how they can catch flies better than I can:-)
Beautiful and great perspective!
Thank you very much Timo! I got lucky on this one:-)
