It wasn't the first jumping spider I had seen on the house, that was a few days before but no time to get the camera. But on 4 October I saw one and had time.
these are all shot hand held, adjusted for sharpness, exposure in some cases, cropped.
the first on on 4 October, pedipalps and front legs in focus but the eyes not quite
another pose
earlier that day I had noticed this little spider with a web on my new plum tree, it was a tricky spot and windy too, lots of out of focus shots. Managed to get the web in this one:
then on 10 October, saw this jumper near the shed door. I think it is a female and she did NOT want to stay still (focus not quite there).
All excellent shots. Even the boss liked them.
