Rain - Birds = Jumping Spiders

[Mark Jason Argallon]

I love it when I see the sparkle in the eyes of the spiders. They are like gems. Imagine that spiders have eight eyes. Amazing!

Mom told me that Dad call this particular spider as money maker.

Again using my 18-55mm with taped magnifying glass on front. Plus a dedicated flash (not a macro flash).

55mm, f/8, 1/30 sec., ISO-200






55mm, f/6.3, 1/125 sec., ISO-800

thanks so much, ate tina! these spiders are manageable. they don't bite naman. i would freak out if it'll be big ones.

Nice macro shots you got here Mark! Your setup works very well. First time I heard the usage of a magnifying glass. Congrats!
