Lynx spider

[Prajwal J Ullal]

Another beauty spotted during the walk at S.G.N.P., this beauty was actually spotted by the keen eyes of my wife. But this shy beauty went under the leaf while she tried to capture it in camera. After several attempts of persuading it to come to the top of the leaf, as the shrub was too small and low, it momentarily came to the top and at that moment I captured it with reverse lens, though not the best shot with very less details, but seemed to be the only decent one. Absence of light all around made the picture blurry with my Canon S5IS (wife was using). The bright orange colour made this spider stand out on the leaf and was surely prone to any predator, I guess it was out of place on this shrub and might be it took refuge onto this plant momentarily.
