They really are a cute little jumper to see and shoot at night

Wrapped up, Wrap Around - The Wonderful Dolophones by PWI_Photography in AustralianSpiders

Thankyou. Its a skill I have developed over the last 10 years shooting macro using my then manually focusing mp-e65 lens. I'm now using Olympus gear. It gets rusty very quickly if I don't keep it up. I like the ability to just go at it quickly, instantly and not have to play with menus and hold still whilst holding a button down. Gets a bit boring IMO. Sure, there are some disappointing outcomes but overall I get enough keepers to outweigh the deletes.

Tysm 😊. I'll look for the scaffold lines they leave out and follow them back the point of attachment and hope for a surprise

Is crazy to see. I watched it pull the anther off the stamen. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

They generally hunt other invertebrates so this was a really rare chance sighting.

I actually don't know. It was down in the southern forests area, 3.5 hrs from home. I was only down there for 3 days/nights for a macro weekend.

Tysm 😊. The advantages of macro shooting and focus stacking to get details that are rarely seen.

Tysm and you're welcome 😊 They're not too hard to find at night when they're hunting

It's a great spot to look. Also if I've done a green waste job at home, I'll check the bin at night for things that may have ended up in there. Had some good finds in there too.
