Just Me And My Shadow

Today I found a spider :-) I named him Jordan. I brought over my cat to play with him, which he did for a while until he got bored :-P So I decided to be inventive and figure out a way to shoot the spider up close and personal.

I put Jordan in a glass covered in paper. Story explaining how I did this is coming soon.

After a statement about identification came up, I started searching sites to identify Jordan but came up short. I found a couple it may possibly be, but anyone out there a spider expert to give an insight? (on a side note, while looking through pages and pages of spider pictures, I started to feel creepy crawly things on my arms and legs and it was making me a bit crazy :-P)

Also, I let Jordan out to pasture to live his life among his other buggy friends, so I don't have him any more to examine or identify, although I should have kept him for future pictures... oh well.

    It might be? They do have them in my area. I dunno, I've never experienced them personally but I have an exterminator friend who's been bitten a few times by them.

    It would be better if the spider is not that transparent. Anyway, it is 5 out of 5
