Jumping spider

This jumping spider was on a leaf on the raspberries.

Just a little closer before it moved away. You can see my head reflected in the eyes.

Wow, he is one ugly hombre. I am glad he does not get very large, I have night mares about him1. Thanks for the sharing the images and scaring the daylights out of me!

Wow - I agree with Larry. At this scale this dude defines fugly. Amazing you were able to get so close for the portrait and a great result.

Wow Larry! That is one scary looking spider, I have to agree with Larry! Great job capturing him, and that's so cool your reflection is seen in the eyes.

Wow, Trent! This is awesome. The level of detail is incredible.

One question that comes to my mind...does this count as a selfie?

 

[Trent Watts]

Never thought of it as a selfie but I like it. New way to take selfies!!
