Looks like S.effera to me Sietse.. But not certain
Nice thought!

Best regards Uros

 

[Apophis]

Thanx Uros!
From what I understand, S. javanensis is also quite variable when it comes to color. So basically I have no idea
I'm planning on sending a molt to Volker von Wirth, hopefully he can shed some light on this.

Still, amazing pics. I know I've asked before, but I HAVE to ask again. What kind of camera are you using, attachments, etc?


Great stuff!

 

[Apophis]

Thanx Paul!
Most of the pix in this thread are taken with a Fuji finepix S5700. But the most recent are taken with a Canon EOS 300 D (I think they were called digital rebel in the states) combined with various lenses

Thanks Pato
Megaphobema are very tretty, but I personally prefer less itchy spiders

Hi Apophis,
Very nice P. sp. "Platyomma", do you know the sex of it?

 

[Apophis]

Thanks Laura,
I haven't confirmed this with a molt, but I'm leaning towards female.

I really like this photo .The light looks perfect , where did you take this photo or where did the light came from .. natural light , lamp .. ?

 

[Apophis]

Thanks Jeff and Mark!

Mark, the light is actually from the internal flash of my camera. I just "bounced" the light with a piece of cardboard.

 

[†-MarK-†]

Aha , I thought you took this photo without flash

Not one of my best shots, but I'm still happy with it, since this species isn't bred often in the Netherlands :
