Arachnids and a nice sunset

Lo guys

We had a Summer storm here about 4 hours ago, and the sunset that followed looked quite nice so I decided to snap a couple of pics. (the pics don't do the colours in the sky justice though)



However, when taking the pics I discovered a Golden Orb Spider had made our power line her new home. You can see her smaller hubby above her.



Upon further inspection it appears that all the relatives have come to our house to live as well



Oh well, the missus will deal with them all tomorrow by dosing them in two cans of fly spray. Flick's a chronic arachnophobe.

How can resist the urge to grab the nearest projectile firing object and use them spiders as target practice

Ahahaha yeah. The spiders do manage to keep the flies in check so they don't bother me. Flick though hates them with a passion, and will probably take heed of your suggestion

I'm with Flick on this one. I'd be cracking out the air rifle at this point and disintegrating them.

Hmmm slug gun, now that does sound like fun. Perhaps even a deodorant can and a lighter

Is it me or does the first picture(sunset) look like a game or computer Graphics?
