Peucetia viridans
"Cupcake" (named after the shape of her egg sac when first seen from a distance) patiently
guarding her egg sac atop a miniature Snow-on-the-Mountain plant awaiting the arrival of her offspring.
This is the only spider known that sprays venom from its fangs in addition to the usual injection method of delivery.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
