I just was outside taking care of our hummingbird feeder and noticed this Green Lynx Spider on an old Zinnia flower bloom. I went back and got my camera and captured this one shot and he didn’t like the close company and went under the flower where it was difficult to get a shot of him (camera shy, I supposed).

Shirley: He may have been demanding a model release as well . Great find and a fine capture. It would also be neat to crop this really tight to nearly fill the frame with the spider and flower. >=))>
Shirley, the original looks very good. However, the cropped version really shows of the spider well. I’m debating whether just a tad more space on the right would be good…but I do like the spider’s position and pose. In the cropped version, it’s a very dominant pose, which add to the spiders presence.
