daddy long legs close

Another off the bucket list.. OK, the daddy long legs isn't the rarest of spiders... nor is it the most poisonous (an urban myth).. And, it's not even a true spider! but the main shot consists of 12 photos stacked. To achieve this the subject needs to sit still... Have you ever tried to place a live daddy long legs in a spot and ask it to sit still? Even the slightest air flow (I breathe) is enough to cause it to try to run away! I hope with my photos of spider, you may grow to appreciate these delicate things, even if you don't end up liking them
