I found this awesome jumping zebra spider on my usual run in the park, just walking on the sidewalk.
The reflection is natural, from the glass tank I held him in. Taking this set of pictures was an exhausting challenge. Over the course of an hour I gained a lot of respect for this energetic little guy. He was released unharmed back in to his wilderness after this fashion shoot.

Thanks for the compliment Gracie! This guy is an averaged sized spider i guess. I used the Nikon 200 macro with extension tubes. Along with a off camera flash set up, a heavy combo. Very challenging hand held, and he would not sit still for very long. Strangest thing the the amount of affection I felt toward this amazing creature.
Same photographer See all
