This little jumper was spotted in the lemon tree ( Pictured on a green lemon )

Detailed and sharp as heck, lovely image and excellent lens/telemacro combo. The texture on the lemon is great, would have liked more muted highlights there. Flash, right?

Yes flash , unfortunately not much one can do unless specifically set up for that situation ( Photographing lemons - Shinny surface ) ...
Camera is set up for 90% , the other 10% of the time there will be minor issues , like reflected light from the flash ..
I was walking past the lemon tree when from my peripheral vision I spotted a jumping spider hanging half way of a leaf , just about to jump to another leaf ..
I watched it for about 5 minutes as it jumped about in the lemon tree .
This picture is not perfect , but I thought it interesting enough to share ..

He stands out well against the green.

Great.... comments on highlights noted, but I still think it works very well as it is. The spider itself is perfectly exposed and very sharp. Nice work!

awesome - and the image and do not think that this spider is so small, it seems that it is huge!
