kgb, love your spider shot, I can understand your dislike of them from your experience, but I find them fascinating creatures.

micturn, nice capture of the red with all the subtle grey/browns and shadows

Mies, love the peacock and his shadow, they are lovely critters

Chipka, I really had to chuckle when reading your post, we were doing that same throwing up of the 'chopters just Friday. my deck is covered with them. But that aside, your shot is stunning in it's detail.

Flannelman, you did manage to give me the heebee geebees with that shot, grasshoppers are one of the few bugs I don't really find to my liking. I think it's because you can never tell which way they are going to jump. Although it always seems they jump toward me instead of away...

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

So where do they go when a photograph leaves you speechless?
