    Everyone else has some gorgeous Ts. Whoever took the pic of the sun tiger ... how in the world did you get a picture that clear without having your face taken off? Mine is a witch!!

    Most Psalmopoeus are evil, but the key to a decent photo is to feed them REALLY well before you try and take a picture. Just be calm and relaxed, have their enclosure inside of a safe tub (large tub with Vaseline around the edges) and don't move fast...unless they come at you. Have your camera adjusted before you open their enclosure and shoot fast.

    You have beautiful inverts, by the way. :)

    I have a juvenile sun tiger & so far I've only gotten a pic of it's belly. Any time I barely touch it's container it disappears back into it's web. I guess that's better than trying to attack me, but it's murder on taking a decent pic!

    That's my one & only pic of my elusive sun tiger, guess mine is shy. Bet it doesn't last! The rest of my Ts I just recently posted on here, so I won't repeat them.

    Mine is shy, fast and aggressive as well. I usually only try to get pictures of my Ts when I am transferring them to larger enclosures or cleaning. My little girl is actually in need of a Mature Male! :)
