Thank you Gary and Neil! Definitely not an expert, just one of those crazy fans ;) I crawled across the sand and rocks for nearly 5 min to get this one. I've been shooting with a Canon 60D for nearly 2 yrs and got a 100mm Macro for my birthday in December. I started PN using a Canon G12 and have passed it down to my daughter.
Cindy, you are becoming the expert on jumping spiders! I assume you use some kinda of macro lens? And you have a Canon t3i right?
