Request for photos

[Windchaser]

My girlfriend in a photo researcher for a publisher and is searching for images of various arachnids and true spiders. These images would be considered and reviewed for publication in a text book. The photographers of any images used would be compensated for the image's use. The images being sought must be high quality photographs.

The images they are specifically looking for the following pictures:

Black widows in webs with prey
Any colorful true spider (orb weavers, crab spiders) in webs with prey

If you have images of some other arachnids that are especially interesting, send those to me as well.

I don't think this is what you are looking for, but thought I'd show it anyway. I have a fondness for argiopes

I have about 5 argiopes living at my work. Since I'm the "Spider guy" everyone points them out when they find them and people seem to be interested in them some even threw some insects on its web to feed it.

Here is an update for everyone. First, thanks to everyone who submitted any pictures. Secondly, I do know that some of the photos I sent are under consideration but unfortunately, I do not know which ones specifically. I have been told by the photo researcher working on this that she will let me know if she needs any further information, such as the photographer's contact information or a copy of the full resolution image. I wasn't given a date for when any final decisions will be made. I will try to keep everyone posted on the progress.

Thanks again.
