Beautiful! Where was this taken, if you don't mind me asking? Also, how long did you sit and wait for the light to create such a beautiful mood?

I won't reveal any more than it is in Australia

I just got lucky with the shot. I was at work, looked up and snapped the photo

You work outside? How nice

Edit: nevermind, then you'll be in the Australian sun and nature.

Our wildlife is harmless

I'll take it over the bears, wolves, bobcats etc. in 'Murica

Especially nice because of the lack of the most dangerous wildlife in the US, the armed lunatic with something to prove

Huntsmen are lovely spiders!

They're harmless

I let them live in the house, they eat the other insects that would be annoying, and that photo isn't representative of their size. The big ones have a legspan about the size of the palm of my hand

I pick them up and let them walk around my hands without worry

The Sydney funnel web spider

The Eastern brown snake

Look at how many incidents there are VS people crossing roads

And I don't live in Sydney, so they aren't a problem for me

I still maintain that the average 'Murican human is far less pleasant
