She's beautiful! Gotta love jumping spiders

So fluffy!

Beautiful spider! Great photos & video, thanks for sharing :)

So much beauty! These make fascinating photos with so much detail. You're an awesome photographer.

Thomas, you are an inspiration to so many, a trip to the out of doors, finding the beauty of our Earth's tiniest majority. Love the wind, birds calls, and especially the oh so cute face of this adorable fluffy nervous nellie teeny tiny harmless jumping spider.

She's beautiful!

I tried talking to one once... you know, moving my hand/arms like they do... the spider was startled at first and then understood I was speaking gibberish... Tried several times later on with other jumping spiders but never got the same result again...

You should try getting drunk and doing it. I always speak foreign better when I'm drunk.

You have to do it with fingers, arms are too big for them to perceive fast enough

haha that's GREAT

when I was a kid and heard about jumping spiders I thought they'd be these huge terrifying things and yet even a huge jumper is still smaller than a Penny lol

I thought they were going be like face huggers from Alien. Thank god it’s just this.

Whenever I need inspiration to go out and shoot macro photos of spiders and insects, I ALWAYS watch your videos. So awesome and inspiring! Thank you, Mr. Shahan.

Wow, what a beauty she is. I love jumping spiders. Only ones! The ones I get around inside/outside are so small

I’d call this the “Sad Face Spider”. Cool ! Thanks

Ha, didn’t notice that until your comment. Now it’s all I see in every shot. Totally changes the perspective.

She is georgous! Very cute little fur and eyes

Wow: its markings are so pretty and it's so hairy! Thank you for this.

Phidippus otiosus is a species of jumping spider that is found in southeastern North America. It is primarily a tree-living species. Females reach a body length of about 16 mm. Its iridescent chelicerae can range in color from purple to green.

I would love to see more simple videos from you! Such a delight even if you don't have a lot to say.

So adorable I want one so badly!

I found the same type today! I made it a little home for the winter, it's such a beautiful spider 🔥

Great video. Your photography and filming skills are absolute quality. Thank you for sharing

Well I could be a big female jumping human if I saw this in my house

Plump and fluffy :)

Great content as always. Would it be too much asking you to do a video on how you maximize depth of field in nature macro photography? I'm experimenting with it myself these days and that's the biggest problem I face. Stopping down to the edge of diffraction and keeping planes as parallel as possibile doesn't seem to be enough and most of the time I'd still like to have more DOF. I guess I could stack but I hate the process involved and with moving subject it's really impossibile. Thanks and have a nice day ;)

its fluffy and kinda cute

Great captures!!!

She’s so cute

They move like they were made as a stop motion film

Amazing!! So these furry jumpers don't bite then?

Any spider has the capacity to bite, however most spiders are less inclined to bite than they are to try and run away first. Jumping spiders especially fit that category, the only time I've ever seen a jumper act aggressively with fangs bared is a male P.audax that I provoked too hard into that sort of situation. They're very fast, so they rely on that speed as a first line of defense. You have to really try to get bitten by one of these fellas.

MORE LIKE THIS PLS !

i hate spiders. so why are close ups so god damm cute

Can you talk to me about options for lenses for my 5 d mark iii. Canon’s Marco lenses are $$$

Malte my guess is the Venus Laowa 60mm F/2.8 Ultra Macro Manual Focus Lens

I'm in north Carolina and I really wish I could find one of these. I have a female princeps and had a female audax

Cute

She's beautiful. Is the nikon p900 good for the macro?

These are the only spiders I like

How do you stack images of a living spider? They are incredibly fast and always in movement.

Ayyyyy how was your trip to Tulsa?

Nice macro model!

Do you still make trips to Del Rio?

👍👍👍

Isit posible to sned a photo of a jumping spider from a side? I am looking for a design to tryto airbrush

What does it mean when they shake both fangs up and down like that? 00:37

Those aren't fangs, they're called pedipalps. They're like little arms, and I believe that's them tapping the ground or something.
