It's great to see one of these guys in action. Usually when I see one it is just staring at me.

The tongue on the fly is the coolest part - it's like the old cartoons where the tongue is always lolling out of the dead thing.

I wish to see a Peucetia. Just in Spain there is Peucetia viridans... it is very similar to this one. Act predation shots are great! You made it to 5 stars!

Ok, how in the hell did you get this to be so clear?! Are you using a ring-light or a standard off-camera flash? Tripod or hand-held? Macro lens or extension tubes?

Luck. :-) No, I was using the phoenix 100 macro, a monopod and flash (off camera...I wish I had a ring light!). I took a whole lot of shots to get this one. :-)
