So what are the dangers of black widows? when I was growing up my mother would tell me to stay away from them, here in San Diego Fallbrook I run into them in the back yard. I feel bad but I end up crushing them with my Doc Martens.

If you can, bring them away from your house...if they are not in their web, they have a hard time walking...they will never attack! They always try to get away from you. The poison works slowly and it is very painful, but you have 24 hours to get a shot. Healthy adults will have no problems...they are only active at night time!

You don't see that many spiders up here like in the Southern US. I do have a really big spider plant though

Great collection. My only real fear is of spiders. But the pics are fantastic. I much prefer reptiles and amphibians, much more my speed.

I currently have a B. smithi juvenile, a P. regalis sling and 15 red color phase OBT P. murinus slings. I also have two scorpions. I have an A. australis and an Asian Forest Scorpion.

Very fine photo work. I would disagree with you though regarding that you think watches are more difficult to Phototgraph. surely the spider moving and the shallow depth of field in macro mode makes spider photography very difficult. But you do it amazingly. 10/10 top of the class.
