Thank you!! The first one was the biggest, and about 8 mm long and about 5 mm wide. The second was only a tiny bit smaller maybe like 6.5 mm long. The last was the smallest. About 5 mm long. By the way I am VERY bad at judging sizes in spiders. And on another note, the second image has a 20% crop. So you are viewing 80% of the image. The other two aren't croped.

I edited my sizes, I realized they were a lot smaller than I thought.

What an entry, not one jumper but 3 different ones!

I'm sure the first pic is actually taken out of some movie ;). The composition is amazing!!!

The second spider looks very interesting and the third one is just too cute.

Well done!

Thank you guys. Bald Eagle, I to am impressed with the sharpness on the shots. I will admit the second could be a tad bit sharper though. Bea, you totally made me blush, and I'm sure my head swelled up a bit. hahaha. Since spring is here, I'm sure I will be taking WAY too many photos for you guys to look at. Thanks again!!

No1 is my favorite - definitely the sharpest too. Looks like a studio set for the 'fake moon landings'.

Cool! 2 flashguns would be nice, but alas, not enough money to venture that far. Very well captured shots, very sharp as well. I take it these were handheld?

Yeah, I can see where you get the Moon shot. haha. Dave, yes these were hand held. I feel so much more mobile without my tripod.

Something about #3 I really like.. the spider has an almost scared look to it. Very well done on all of them.
