Orange lynx spider



I saw this beauty in my garden !!! It's a lynx spider. They don't build a web but simply stay in bushes and plants and hunt small bugs.
I shot this with a reversed Tokina 24mm  prime lens mounted on a Nikon D50.
Have a great day, friends !!!

I'm entomophobic. However, the 1st pic gives me the impression of a snake's head mounted on the head of Spider's - in between the eyes!!! am not sure how poisonous it actually is, but anyway I'll stay away from it!!!

Though I too have been in gardens, I have never noticed such beautiful creatures there. May be it requires a photographer's eyes to notice them! Simply awesome!
