Default Found my first jumping spider

Been after getting a shot of a jumping spider after seeing so many good ones on here, so had a good hunt around this afternoon and finally found this one sitting out in the sun...

Really good for your first jumper, and I especially like the texture of the old paint he's on as well.

My fiancee also thinks they're pretty cute.

But then again, I told her just how small they are...

I really like these, the old, chipping paint looks nice too. A lot better than my first jumper.

No stacking, these were both single shots. Not tried any stacking yet.
