A Jumper Spider and a possible Wolf?

Basically just playing around with my macro lens, nothing really great beside one picture I really like. All the jumper pictures looks bad cause he was just so darn small and wouldn't sit still, the possible wolf spider was all taken through glass as she was huge and I was terrified to get close encase she jumped at my camera, only one not taken through glass is the one taken outside which I will post first.

Anyway hope you all like, Mitch wanted me to water mark them so excuse my silly job.


Outside Photo


Bad face attempted, didn't bother to mark it


Another fang attempt, also didn't bother


She was really pretty


On to my favorite little buddy






And finally my absolute favorite picture

Nice shots.

The first spider is a type of orb weaver (they make the classic wheel shaped web). No jumping abiity at all.

The first spider is a Araneus diadematus, or the European Garden Spider. No relation to wolf spiders.
Also, wolf spiders are hunters, they never make webs.

Also, love the jumping spider! They are my favourite type of spider.
