Spiders and Springtails

[hoftwi]

I have found more spiders in the garden in the last week, though they are only the small ones. I am glad that at least I found something

8 No idea what it is but it attached to a leaf, when I turned over the leaf, it was moving.

Fab set that last image looks very good, I wonder what it is as well, will be good if someone can ID it.

That first image has to be my favourite for focus skills - such a narrow DOF and you've got that spiders' eyes nailed.

Number 3 and 4 is excellent.

3&4 are the ones for me, focus is spot on in No4, looks like a wolf spider but could be wrong, well done icy

Lovely set #1 your copyright needs to be moved as its a major distraction.

last one is a hoverfly larvae I reckon they are normally moving slime.

Nice set of images Icy, with some really nice detail and colour.

That looks like a pisaura mirabilis (nursery web spider). #2 is a wolf spider for sure.

Great shots.

Agree with Tim great work you've got the focus spot on in the first one too
