Here's another one from the rainforest of Trinidad and Tobago. This one was very curious and kept jumping onto my front element of my lens. I don't know if perhaps it was seeing it's reflection.

What a cool shot. I like the blue color of its face and those eyes are amazing. Looks a little tight at the bottom of the frame. I wonder if there isn't some more image under the slide mount.

I always loved a good frontal shot of these little guys, and this one is simply great!! 8)

Look at all those catchlights! :) I really like the way the spider is looking straight out of the frame.
