Be Afraid Of The Dark!

By Jmag60
I opened our back door last night to let our dog out to the back garden and came face to face with this monster just hanging there. I always have a camera hanging from my wheelchair, so when a photo opportunity hits you in the face take it!!!!
I'm glad it was me that opened the door and not my wife who would have walked straight into it and the whole neighbourhood would have thought there had been a murder with the sound of hysterical screams!!!!
Photo as shot.

Thanks for taking time to look,

Stay Safe,
JohnSmile

Very impressive, if a case of "hope I do not meet you in the dark" Nice and sharp with great details.
