Once again, I present the small jumping spider
- Marpissa muscosa
- family: Salticidae

This time from another point of view.
I like these small spiders because they are very vigilant and agile and fast responders.
Body length about 9 mm.

Ahhhh, noch so eine faszinierende Springspinne.
Hat diese auch Dein Objektiv "angefallen"?
Der Moment ist super - zusammen mit Deiner Überschrift einfach spitze.
Der Eyecatcher sind natürlich wieder die Augen, diese tolle Reflektion in den riesigen "Kugeln".
Vielen Dank, erstklassiges Bild - und nichts Alltägliches.
Liebe Grüße

Ciao Peter, fantastic eyes for this lovely jumping spider, fine details and superb sharpness very well done my friend, ciao Silvio

Hello Peter,
Definitely, this is not a common POV for a Salticidae! ... looks ready to jump in anytime! The picture almost moves! A great macro friend Peter! congratulations! I do not know if you chose the pose, or expect to happen, but it is excellent!
Regards, TFS, Jesús

Hi Peter,

eine wirklich gelungene Aufnahme dieser eigentlich winzigen Springspinne. Auf dem Bild kommt sie eher als Vogelsinne rüber ;O)

Klasse! Ich bin immer wieder von Deinen Bildern begeistert und schaue mir diese gerne an!

LG
Sascha

Peter, the eyes of a Jumping Spider are its beauty spot and you have captured them in this shot with unusual dexterity.
Even the expression of looking up is captured well in it, justifying your caption to the picture.
As Sabine rightly said, it is an "erstklassiges Bild" without any doubt.
Thanks and regards.
Ram

Hi Peter.
Superb 3D-image of a cute spider. As usual for you macro works sharpness and details of the subject are ultimate. I also like rich colour palette of the image and attractive POV. Best wishes and TFS.

Hello Peter,
very well captured spider in its best sharpness and features well shown. I like the two dark eyes seen very clearly and the details of its hairiness.
The shallow depth really gives a dramatic and effective view.
Very nice composition.

regards,
Foozi
