This was shot with my Canon A 580 fully auto camera, in the dormitory at Aranya Nivas, Similipal in Nov 2008. Knew nothing about photography at that time :). Yet this is one of my favourite creatures, so wanted to share it.
Shooting Mode Auto
Tv (Shutter Speed) 1/60
Av (Aperture Value) 7.1
ISO Speed 80(Auto)
Flash On
AF Range Mode Macro
Not very sure of the ID. Please help if you can. S.Indian Spiders has a similar looking one but describes the size as much smaller than what I saw. The body of this one was at least 4-5 cm long. According to a friend of mine, its bite is moderately venomous and can cause local pain, swelling etc. for some time.
Thanks for viewing, comments and critiques awaited.

Good composition... you can brighten the image a bit more and crop off a bit of the top dark portion...

Nicely taken. The image is sharp. Some more light would have enhanced it further. Youc an crop the top a bit as suggested by Bibhav.

Look forward to more..

Agree with the suggestion that you could open this up a bit.
