“Pictures, regardless of how they are created and recreated, are intended to be looked at. This brings to the forefront not the technology of imaging, which of course is important, but rather what we might call the eyenology (seeing).”  Henri Cartier-Bresson

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hogna radiata (Family: Lycosidae; common name: False tarantula)

Hogna radiata is a species of wolf spider present in South Europe (from the middle of France), north Africa and Central Asia (N. I. Platnick). This species is wandering, hunting smaller insects less than 20% of its own size. It is usually found on grass, parks, and forests.
