I'm not going to lie, I am pretty excited about these next pictures.

zebra jumping spider (not sure of scientific name)
These jumpers are very common to southern ontario and always get looked over, beautiful specimen though.

There are more on my Flickr account...

Even with the chilling the specimen was exceptionally hard to photograph, Sorry I didn't get a head on shot of it. The spider appears to be in a death curl, although after a few seconds post freezer it sporadically got up and moved around.

No color boosting or saturation changes at all. I upped the brightness to white out the background. Colors are true.

All i've been getting lately are lurkers

Post something guys I'd like some input.

Good or Bad

I'm going to get a HD INSIGMA DV camcorder in the not too distant future and will be making some tutorials and feeding videos. Anyone have any input on this camcorder or any better ones for HD video for under 100 dollars? I can find used ones for ~90 bucks

Oh, and I;ve recently aquired a P.Metallica sling and am networking with a breeder to trade P.irminia slings for another P.Metallica 1 inch specimen.
