Photo taken at Laguna Seca Ranch in South Texas.
Nikon D810, 300mm f/2.8 lens, 1/320 sec at f/11, ISO 200

Was cleaning up and found this Green Lynx Spider on a white wall.  He was motionless on the wall until a fly landed nearby.  The speed of this spider is impressive.  The fly never saw him coming.  Sorry for the bland background.

Excellent detail - perhaps it's bland, but at least the background shows off the spider well.

Hi

Nice capture of this predator / prey action - and the backdrops ok, as Tom said the subject do stand out from it well

All the best
Matthew
