Texas Rabid Wolf Spider (Rabidosa rabida) on the prowl.
I've played with it a bit in an effort to make it even creepier
F/16, 1/160th, ISO 640, 1D M3, Sigma 150mm f/2.8 and ring-flash.

Good presentation. Hook em Horns

Putting those PS skills to good use - I really like this presentation abd the subject is perfect for it. The only minor minor nit is the edge of the leg seems to be cut off as it's a straight horizontal line - but maybe that's what the original capture was

Creative and creepy, Howard! Those beady eyes staring straight at me are bad enough but to see that spider coming right out of the photo at me. . . Freaky fun photo!

Keep this guy away from me, please! Just that little extension of the leg really makes the image come alive. Hate spiders, love the image.

Wow, that sure is creepy, and the one thing that I truly hate are spiders. Great job.
