ARCHIVE KENYA 28 – IF YOU’RE AN ARACHNOPHOBE, LOOK AWAY NOW!

 

 

.
Female spider using two of her eight legs to guard her swarming brood of tiny young; around 1980.

This spider secured herself high up inside my living room window in Nairobi and I left her unmolested, to see what outcome this might bring. After the young appeared, I attached some card up against the outside of the window, to provide a more or less uniform backdrop for this flash photo.

Click onto the image to open a larger version in a separate window – recommended …. and if the nightmares start, well don’t forget you saw them first on FATman Photos!

Technique: OM-2 with through the lens flash metering; Agfa CT18 colour slide film, rated at 64 ISO.
