I took this spider today when I and my friend were going back from a nature reserve where we took a lot of pictures of the orchid; Elder-flower Orchid, dactylorhiza sambucina (post later). This is the first spider of 2005.
I’m very bad to ID spiders but I think this is a kind of wolf spider.

Technique:
Sigma 180 Macro EX HSM, Handheld
ISO 200, Raw-format, One shot Autofocus
Converted, Levels/Curves, Contrast, Crop, resized to 800 pixels, converted to sRGB save as JPG for the WEB. I used Adobe Photoshop CS2 for PP.

Hi, Paul.
Is this for any help to ID the spider?
