The first jumping spider in a long time

This little guy on my bathroom wall and new soft boxes for my flash prodded me to get out the "Macro" Lens.
I really like him on the white background. I have left this lens sitting on the shelf for too long.

That is a nice picture! Notice that it has adorable eyelashes? Can't tell for sure what this species is, but its low profile & some other things about it reminds me of Platycryptus undatus. See http://bugguide.net/index.php?q=search&keys=Platycryptus+undatus&search=Search
Keep 'em coming! We like this sort of thing.

Thank you. He was really good model and didn't move the whole time. I took many shots to get the eyes in focus. I am hand holding with a lens that is manual focus. It took awhile but I have learned to love it.

Nice use of your macro lens and soft box. I have a soft box, but I haven't used it. I have a number of photos I want to take, but other things have gotten in the way.

Thank you. I had a homemade one that worked well but didn't hold together well. I am liking this one so far.
