It's not that one you want to worry about, it's the 2 others hiding in the bushes either side ready to pounce.

It's the velociraptor of the spider world.
 
We've had loads of those spiders in the garden this week. Normally I don't mind, but this morning I walked straight into an enormous web across the path when I went to put the bins out. Yeuchhhhhh

I rested the end of the lens on my thumb and took the shot in manual focus. I used the on board flash with a diffuser.

As for more... erm:
