Tiny Jumping Spiders II
These spiders are the smallest subject I've ever taken photos of. They are so tiny, I'm talking like 1mm long sort of tiny, and they're hard to find amongst the leaves, and I'm shooting hand held!
So with all that in mind, I have to use a high ISO so I can get a fast enough shutter speed that it's not all blurry, because the aperture has to be relatively high because I'm so zoomed in AND they're so small. That means that I've ended up with some very closeup shots, somewhat in focus, but with quite a bit of noise from the ISO.
Just to give you some kind of idea how tiny these things are, this is the leaf that the spider was on in the above picture.
I've taken photos of these types of spiders before, with some better results:
In general they're pretty plentiful, if you know where to look (and look very very closely!) and they stay pretty still for the most part, you can get right up on top of them. Would love to get one of those MPE-65 lens some day.

Thanks for your pics and patience to take photos of such tiny little creatures.
They are very interesting to look at and I enjoyed the comparison with your finger.
I'm no fan of spiders, but these guys are so photogenic! Great shots. Thanks for sharing them.
Nice post
Hi, This is really cool! What lens are you using? I love to take pics of bugs and nature too. Hope to continue learning from you. Thanks,
I use a Nikon D750 with a 105 mm micro
I'm using a standard 100mm Macro Lens but with a Raynox 2.5x Magnification Filter on the end. With the filter you'd be able to get that bugs face in full frame!
wow....nice camera work, bra!
