First macro insect of the season from the weekend, the spider is only 3 -4 mm in length so you can imagine how big the prey was in comparison. It took him around an hour to devour him so lots of opportunity for shots. I rather like this one with the sun catching the fly wing

Shot with my Canon 100 f2.8 LIS macro lens, 1/640, f8, ISO 400

nice shot was this in the house? didn't the spider move
 
Thats a great shot of this Jumping Spiders (Salticidae) Maybe a Zebra jumping spider, really nice angle and clarity.
Keep up the good work :D
 
Very nice I have yet see one this year.
 
Great first time back shot Stan, the image is lacking a little bit of contrast to me think that could be pushed harder.
