The Cucumber Spider
Theme Day. The color green. On the bike I suddenly noticed something green on one of my fingers. It was a cucumber spider. It turned out to be a very lazy spider because it stayed with me for a few kilometres!

what an interesting spider. spring green.
Magnifique macro, elle est digne de jouer dans un film d'horreur
Fabulous macro Steffe, creepy looking spider though, icky hairy legs haha!
The structure and colour of the spider is wonderful, as is your macro ... but ... look at that wonderful skin texture. Be still my heart!!
Steffe, I never wanted to get that close a look at your skin!
I see why they call this little booger a cucumber spider.
I had never seen one of these! Excellent choice.
Eye-popping macro. What did you shoot it with?
Great capture.
Sydney - City and Suburbs
As above spectacular macro. That is a very tiny green spider.
wow, this is a very unique spider. never heard of it or seen anything like it
Amazing macro shot
Great macro shot! I'm not a fan of spiders but, I must say this is a colorful little fellow.
Very unusual little fella. Glad it stayed with you as a companion for awhile.
What a SPLENDID shot for today's theme. Possibly wins the prize for originality !
Congratulations Steffe!
Or Summer green today.
Ha ha, a very inexpensive horror movie Olivier!
It's a bit one the tiny side, between 4 and 8 mm long.
Luckily all spiders in this country are harmless, unless you have a phobia of course.
Thanks Julie.
Shot with my Canon Powershot. It's a good little camera. I bought it last year when one of the lenses I use on the Digital Rebel died. I have a flickr set with photos I have shot with it. Called Power Shots.
perfect name for this spider, a choice for the theme day that has 'legs'.
Amazing photo, Steffe.What a serendiptious find for today's theme. Love it!
What a creepy hitchhiker! I would have flung it off before I even got a good look. It is a green beauty though. Great macro!!!
So cool! Great macro, Gorgeous Greens! Happy July!
Beautiful macro shot of a delicate creature. Excellent theme day choice!
He does look like a cucumber doesn't he?
wow, what detail?
Would this qualify as a portrait?
Sure does Abe.
I guess any photo of any living thing could be said to be a portrait, but in my world only people counts.
Oh. My. Goodness. That is the cutest thing I've ever seen!
whoa! Stunning shot, Steffe. The thumbnail doesn't do it justice. And the skin. Great stuff!
OMG! This photo is amazing!!
This photo is the winner!
