Marbled spider (Araneus marmoreus) in Northeastern Ohio. It was hanging next to the back door of a friend's house. Nice Rorschach-like designs. I like how you can see the shadows of the individual hairs on its legs. - [[User:Brian0918|brian0918 talk]] 18:13, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Support. Thanks brian0918 for identifying this critter. Certainly one of the more interesting subjects I've photographed -Casito 19:55, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Neutral. It's interesting and you can see details, but don't you think the background is boring? Also, it's appears a little out of focus. Enochlau 02:01, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. The standards in the animal category are quite high, this one is out of focus. Also, try to work it into an article, Featured pictures are supposed to be excellent illustrations, illustrate something :) -- [[User:Solitude|Solitude\talk]] 08:06, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)
