Baby Spider
A bucket of car parts and a dissected baby.. for the extra smart people, you may notice it doesnt have 8 legs technically invalidating this claim of arachnid heritage. You would be correct and instead, can imagine the title as being something else.
strobist info
no flashes for this one. a diffused lamp sitting on the table on the
left. a supertorch diffused through a bucket lid below center,
pointing up to create some of the shadows. a mag light taped to a
tripod right of frame to fill in the right foot and to create more
shadows on the background. the effect being simply to try and create
more legs than there were.

You need to get a dog. Maybe a nice quiet vacation? I don't think
the 12 step program should be totally disregarded. Even something like
Outward Bound could maybe help. You are so much fun. I can not stop.
