Some more amazing shots Chad, really love the Cyclosternum fasciatum!! :D So many of yours I've never seen! ;)

Forgive me for being incredulous once more, but is that the 2-inch B. emilia as well??! Such beauty, never tire of that one. :)
Thanks Michael! All the spiders in the last post except the Hmac sling are April's. I took them in July sometime when I stopped by to drop off slings. I was just going through older photos and posting a few. ;) I did actually pick up the camera today though! :D

Beautiful legs of that irminia...awesome shot, Chad! Get some full body shots of her, damn it ;)
I would but she isn't mine. ;) She's actually the grandmother of all the slings I hatched this year. :D

I love the woolly looking H. mac sling! :D
Me too! Those little suckers are not easy to photograph! :)

I love to browse this tread, as the pics here are truly amazing...
I just lost my female A. amazonica yesterday to a bad molt, and am still so sad about that... and its a little comforting looking at your pics and the beauty they hold.

I have ordered a A. metalica now, and would love to see some pics of yours if you still have it?

Great pictures once again, Chad. Personally, I think you played around a little too much with the contrast on the A. amazonica "butt shot" though? ;) Can't wait till my little P. langenbucheri grows bigger, really happy that I got that one!
On a sidenote: A YT buddy of mine just acquired a 1.1 A. juruensis from the breeder that I asked 2 weeks ago regarding them, getting the answer they wouldn't be available. Guess he just reserved them for that other person...needless to say I'm quite annoyed about having been lied to. Oh well... :(

I'm sorry to hear about your spider. :( Don't give up! I do still have the Avicularia metallica lady. I actually just got a boy for her! ;) I'll get pics of her up soon! :)

Sorry Shell! I'll get a foot shot or two in this time around! ;)

Thanks Jan!? I didn't mess with contrast in that pic, I'm sorry I didn't live up to your standards last time around. :ninja:

Ridiculous shots of the A. amazonica! Keep up the awesome work, Chad! :D
Thanks Jason! :D

Well, I've been a little busy lately, but I have got a few shots these last few weeks. I did finally start pairing spiders again though. :D

Chad, I believe your photos qualify as enabling tactics. LOL You've got me wanting to expand my Avicularia collection. Love that C. darlingi, too! Of course, one can never have too many baboons...

Spectacular images Chad!!!!! Especially love the face through the setae. :D Plus you've made up my mind for me ... next up is another A. amazonica! :)

My first was a consummate teddy-bear right up until his maturing molt -- then suddenly a 7-inch fiend! :eek: (But still spectacularly beautiful, turned metallic navy blue! :D)
