Those are nice pictures! The first is a bold jumping spider, Phidipus audax. The second is the bronze jumping spider, Eris militaris, I think . Those have a nice bronzy color under strong light.
And welcome!

On this forum we love Jumping spiders! You will fit right in!

Query: Are you happy with the 'doughnut' shaped reflections in the eyes? These are usually associated with ring-light illumination.

Not really, but this is what I have to work with for now. I slave another flash off of the ring flash to light up background to give more depth. this you can see in one photo the ring flash with a stroke in it
The jumpers are probably going into hibernation as it starting to get cooler here and harder to find. Thanks all for the comments
