Close-up photo of a west coast lace weaver spider resting on a weathered wooden stake in a garden. The spider has glossy reddish-orange legs and head, and a large, rounded, silvery-grey abdomen held upright. Green foliage blurs softly in the background.

Spider season started early on the Olympic Peninsula this year. Walking into webs every which way I go isn't my favorite thing in the world, but I do love the opportunity to photograph some cool arachnids. This particular spider is Callobius severus. My partner saved her from drowning, and I captured a bazillion photos while she recovered in the sun.
