This tiny little bugger was only about 6mm from leg tip to leg tip. I caught him, put him in the fridge for about 30 minutes. I use a 35mm f/2 AIS Nikkor reversed on the D7100 and focused with a macro rail. This image is photostacked from 9 (I think) images. Not long after I took the last one, he warmed up and poof! he was gone!

Sorry for the photo dump!


All outstanding shots! I love jumping spiders, they are so cute (if an arachnid can actually be cute).

Great shot. Pretty sure that’s a twin flagged jumping spider

I've seen some really good looking and impressive spiders here, but never have I seen a pretty one until now.
While I always try to avoid killing spiders, here's a spider I don't think I could bring myself to extinguish.


It's my life and I'll get pissed if I want to.

First jumping spider I've found since picking up the 90D late last year. This one was very active, and seemed very intent on NOT having her picture taken!
