Jumping spider in the pink

Lord Vetinari

A small "house" jumping spider. I trapped this guy inspecting one of the kitchen worktops. Tried to photograph it with my normal "studio" setup but every time I lifted the glass it just made a high speed run for it. As a last resort I got a begonia flower and managed to get the spider to walk onto it and once there it stayed virtually stock still no matter what I did.
All shots focus stacked using zerene. Taken at 3:1 to 5:1 FF.
