Ready To Strike

I spent the morning catching up with some chores before we take off for a while. Mowing the lawn
spooked this little chap so I decided to grab a few shots. He hid himself against the step of the
deck in deep shadow, so again I used my speedlight to help out a little. From side to side in this
shot this little chap is less than 3" across, and looking through the lens it was curious to see him
puffing himself up or panting!!!
I also finished putting together a few shots of the spider (with a wasp) above our deck......

Nikon D70s
1/250s f/11.0 at 90.0mm iso200 full exif

Nice shot Dave! Always good to get the head in sharp focus. Hard to believe that it's so small too ..... Voted.

Great close up.
