Pretty in Pink

I recently had the opportunity to photograph this small and rather cute jumping spider (Sitticus pubescens) as it clambered around some pink flowers in my garden.

Jumping spiders can be very difficult to photograph as they are continually on the move. This one was a little more co-operative and did at least pause for a second or two now and again allowing me to get the images below.

I cropped a little off the top of this next one as I thought it better suited the shape of the spider.
