Friends, meet Lola :)
This was the jumping spider that we found at my girlfriend's mountain chalet, resting nicely on a window frame. We named it Lola since "she" looked very beautiful, with "her" long eye-lashes and cute eyes :)

This is no studio shot. She just jumped on one of those white plastic garden chairs and that's why everything else is white in the frame.

Hope you'll like it and thanks for visiting.

Hello Horia,
Lola has that 'come-to-me' look in this excellent frontal POV macro of this jumping spider.
The technical aspects are excellent with fine sharpness, DOF and great light management of the white plastic BG.
Thanks and all the best,
