I took this photo of a male jumping spider (Phidippus audax) a few months ago and thought it wasn't good enough to post. I'm still unhappy with the quality of the image, but since posting it last night in the comments to "Misty morning in the garden" it seems that others think it's not such a bad photo after all. This little jumper just might hold the cure for arachnophobia.
Added for context:

(8,896 posts)good photo. Ergo it must be according to Spockian logic, not a bad photo leaving all sorts of possibilities. Easiest perhaps to assume the opposite of "not bad" = "not good" but that fails to find a positive direction always preferable to a bad one lest one becomes so
confused as to reach for an accommodation halfway in between bring about a murky conclusion stuck in quicksand and sinking slowly tho certainly, by then thinking you just don't what in blazes you actually
are thinking. Hmmm

lol ..I havent seen DUer bluthruu lately but she and I have exchanged many a message about jumping spiders

Thats a pretty cool image: its the first time I have seen a green one.
Well..not green but with green looking structures.

(6,497 posts)One of my misgivings about the photo is the color of the jaws (chelicerae). They were blue but turned out green in the image. I'm going to eventually get a good image of a jumper; but even with its flaws, this photo has some charm.
Thanks!

(9,752 posts)works very well. It's something I try to avoid but maybe I need to broaden my vision!

(6,497 posts)I'd hoped to get a photo that might be appropriate for use in a field guide. This, unintentionally, turned out to be more of an art photo.
Thanks!
