Mr & Mrs Giant Spider At Home.
We have several giant spiders on our porch, and as the weather gets colder and colder they spend more time huddled up trying to keep from becoming giant spidersicles. This couple is sitting on the porch ceiling right above one of the porch lights. Mr. Spider has, wisely, put a good thick layer of silk between him , the cold, and his much larger and not particularly romantic mate (I thought originally that Mr. Spider had come a little bit too close and become an evening snack, but his legs look a little bit too alert for a poisoned spider.)
It's not the greatest picture on this planet because of the twin curses of the Pentax not having greatest autofocus in low light and the mark 1 manual focus not being willing to sit out on the very cold porch trying to properly focus in on Ms. Spider's mandibles.
