• Support Great photo of this kind of spider, really sharp and detailed. Just tell me, please, what is this light blurred band on the left that some viewers might find distracting? --Tremonist (talk) 12:07, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
  • A tree trunk, about 10 or 15 feet away. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 12:56, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
• Support - Nice picture. I wouldn't even mind seeing it become the lead image of Nephilidae as well. Mattximus (talk) 13:04, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

• Support That's a fantastic shot, Chris! It easily exceeds the FP criteria. RO^(talk) 19:31, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
• Support, quite an impressive shot. The photographer must have gotten him to pose by bribing him with little spider treats. — Cirt (talk) 22:52, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

• Support Cited size might be of interesting. --PetarM (talk) 10:55, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
  • Legs seemed to be about 10-15cm from tip to tip, maybe more. I didn't measure this specimen, but that size is not uncommon for this species. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 13:11, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
• Support - Great photo. I saw several of these when I was in the Philippines. It's a beautiful spider. Kaldari (talk) 16:13, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
