Do you think this is a young male common house spider, Parasteatoda tepidariorum? He's living on my space heater in my egg studio! For joy! I even found an exoskeleton that I believe is his under the space heater. If you look closely, there are actually two exoskeletons in the shot. Canon MP-E65 Comments welcomed!

I really like the 4th image. I think the first 3 are good but could have benefitted from focus stacking. The last is simply cool! Very nice! Bravo Zulu!

Thank you -- yes, image stacking is definitely something I want to get into!

Yes, now I have someone (John) to keep me company in my studio. Along with a couple other spiders I found near the window panes!
