tombstone spider
I’ve got to remember to bring my macro lens with me next time I go shooting cemteries. These quiet places are ideal worlds for many small life forms. Here’s a nice jumping spider I chased round and round the headstone trying to capture a likeness. I might have missed the little critter but for the two glowing spots near the pedipalps. I’m not sure what they are; I don’t think they’re eyes. Somewhere in the cobwebs of my mind there’s a poem or a quote about spiders and graveyards. If there’s not one, I’ll have to make one up.
I think I’m tired of the “fifi grafitti” title. I’m going to experiment with new titles. (sigh) If only I could figure out how to change the page banner without screwing up the rest of the page……
