Cocoon

Posted by liljim Jul. 20, 2008 @ 10:16 PM EDT

Well, I already had a rant about USB stuff, so I can't really continue on all of that.

I got one up on those guys, though. My card reader came through today, so I don't have to worry about USB cords any more.... for the two cameras I have, at least. Who knows, it might come up as a party pleaser, given that I have several weddings to attend in the next few months.

I'm not up to Wade's standards with photography, but I've been awake very early in the morning over here for the past few weeks and that's the best time to catch spiders in action. So here's one. Sorry, it's not the greatest of shots, but it's not too bad. Looks like that bad boy knew what his dinner was, cocooned it and went in for the kill.

nice pic! why are you taking pics? do you wanna study photography or something?

Jul. 21, 2008 | 3:26 AM liljim responds:

Nope, no interest in that. I just happened to be awake and have a digital camera at hand at the time.

Jul. 21, 2008 | 11:35 AM Kirk-Cocaine says:

Is that an extreme close up or something, 'cos I swear I've never seen a spider that big in this country before!

Jul. 21, 2008 | 12:38 PM liljim responds:

Yeah - to give you an idea of perspective, the thing that's in that cocoon is a bluebottle, so the spider itself is no bigger than a penny.

Jul. 21, 2008 | 12:40 PM elliez3 says:

rest in peace, spider-pig.

Jul. 21, 2008 | 12:46 PM jtm17 says:

i cant think of anywhere in england i can see one of those beasts!

Jul. 21, 2008 | 1:22 PM liljim responds:

I don't think I'll be there, no.

As for the picture - it was taken in my back garden. The spider isn't that big (read two comments up).

Jul. 21, 2008 | 5:24 PM Wingle-Flotz says:

Wow! It looks like a crab or something...

Jul. 21, 2008 | 5:51 PM BlueHippo says:

Ooh nice. Can we expect mews posts about your cameras next? :3

Jul. 21, 2008 | 8:48 PM liljim responds:

Eh, no.

The first digital camera I had was a FujiFilm S5000.
Second was FujiFilm Finepix F40fd.

Jul. 21, 2008 | 8:15 PM Yrtnej says:

That picture is really freaky. But it was a nice shot.

Wade better look out!

Jul. 21, 2008 | 9:20 PM Bryan says:

Jul. 21, 2008 | 11:04 PM SamIam says:

I thought this was going to be the movie cocoon. Anyways you should have video taped this it would have been amazing.

Jul. 21, 2008 | 11:36 PM Matt475 says:

listen Jim if you really have to be a fag, at least have the decency to stay in the closet.

Jul. 22, 2008 | 2:16 AM freddorfman says:

Jul. 24, 2008 | 2:59 PM Grammer says:

You have scary-looking spiders in England

Does your cam have the resolution to get a good face picture of the spider?

Jul. 25, 2008 | 12:47 PM raggy704 says:

it looks like it slammed into a window, then broke it. looks cool

Jul. 26, 2008 | 9:13 PM SevenSeize says:

I hate USB cords and do not use them anymore either.

As for the spider, nice pic, but still.... Now I feel like something is crawling on me....

Jul. 28, 2008 | 1:27 PM spite-skater says:

Whoa, that spider is ridiculous.
Any idea what kind it is?

Jul. 28, 2008 | 7:30 PM JPI says:

Wow, I'm glad those things are early risers and not in my timeframe.
Pretty nice photo :)

Jul. 28, 2008 | 9:29 PM MrSoup says:

Jul. 30, 2008 | 2:10 PM Unkle-Krakerz says:

Hold on! Don't you hate Newgrounds and called Tom a faggot and sent them a bomb in their P.O. box along with a bag of McDonalds with chewed-up peanuts and a picture cut-out of Ronald McDonald's head?

If you want to be Wade you got to talk about LEDs and be really annoying.
