Here's my first post in a few months... another jumping spider, I know, but I'm not expecting massive acclaim here. I go with my gut as to what to post.

This one lived waaay up on a rocky outcropping on a steep hillside north of Pike's Peak, and shows some coloration identical to the Pike's Peak Granite. The arrow below shows approximately where the photo was taken. He was looking out over the valley to the left, seemingly enjoying the view, as there was nothing nearby to jump to. Otherwise, he was running about too quickly to capture well.

:) cool shot and coll place! +10 for effort.. setup is good.
The perfection could be shifting the dof a bit deeper to put in focus plane also the other spider leg.
a little more space also on the left side could stress the jump preparation for the spider...
+9 total my friend!

Nice colours and details on the rock and spider.
I find the blurry part of the rock a little distracting, tho I know it would be impossible to get everything in focus here.
Cool shot altogether.

Really nice photo. Love the DOF. Would crop a bit from the top to balance out the composition.
