Nice photo Sky Girl and the spider does look emerald green. I might have cropped it a little differently.. The blur on the left is a little distracting. Keep shooting. Textures are good.

Another beauty. Is this one of those jumping spiders? We used to have those where we lived in Northern California. Fuzzy little guys with big eyes (lots of big eyes). They were possibly the cutest of the spiders (which is saying alot for me.)
Way cool! Wonderful details and I love how he stands about amongst the background! I'm thinking a shorter crop from the top, adding a black frame top/bottom would really emphasize and strengthen the focus on this marvelous critter.... that's just me though. Love his colours and markings, and all the textures! Very well done! :)
