Intolerable cruelty ;-) To thank you for the english lesson, I will give you a little French one: "Les yeux plus gros que le ventre" - literraly "bigger eyes than belly" means that you want more than what you can really eat. Excellent close-up.

Sent a shiver down me spine... fabulous macro - is that spider venomous to humans??

Yvonne		27-Nov-2006 22:20
The famed very toxic redback spider - one gives them a wide berth, so glad they don't jump (at least I hope they don't!)! What a feast this little lady has collected - superb macro shot Sheila! vote
