Garden spider.

Garden spider

I had my camera in hand, and was just getting ready to photograph the large black strawberry tub, out of the corner of my eye I saw a shadow, something moving......

I nearly died when I saw the size of this garden spider my hand was shaking I tried to zoom in but didn't want to get too close.

Generally I am not scared of spiders but he was big in the third photo you can even see his blue eyes!
