Thought I’d kill two birds, so to speak, with this one and use this wee beastie as an excuse to belatedly join the belated WordPress photo challenge.
I have tried and tried – but I haven’t been able to identify this spider, so if anyone can help, I would truly love to give it a label. I think the shapes of the legs are unusual and beautiful – and the colouring, well … see for yourself.

No idea.. I don’t know how you are managing to find so many different bugs.. I’m so impressed!
According to my nature book, I’ve only got another 949,955 types to find 🙂
No idea what it is, but it looks as if it’s studded with sapphires!
A proper little jewel in the rough 🙂
As long as they are not near me, they are quite pretty. They are well captured. No pun intended. 😀
It was that little, you probably wouldn’t notice it near you anyway 🙂
No idea what it is, but it’s beautiful!
I agree.
I can’t find it anywhere though.
I have no idea as well what it is, but it looks beautiful in your picture! 🙂
Thank you. Beauty seems to be in some unexpected places 🙂
I don’t know what it is but it looks like a jewel.
I see what you mean. It has a little glimmer to it.
That is a pretty spider, but I know nothing about them. Sorry! Here’s my blue: http://wp.me/p1TywS-su

Lost me but yes, it’s very impressive looking.
Thank you.
I like it 🙂
Cool, Alice. Creepy, but cool! 🙂
I’m warming to creepy 🙂
Haha, just caught this comment now and it made me laugh out loud 🙂
very interesting
I thought so too. I wish I knew what is is! 🙂
I dont know there is spider that blue. Is it capable to make us blue?
Nice interpretation indeed.
I don’t know if the colour’s been distorted by the light – but I haven’t done it. It was very, very small – so who knows what is out there!
beautiful!
I think he is too 🙂
Thanks.
What kind of a spider is that?
That’s the question I’M asking! 🙂
Wonderful shots, and it has a lovely colour! 🙂
Thank you 🙂

Those are some amazing shots! Good eye, good eye! 😉
I believe he is from the scary spider genus. They are known for their creepy image. LOL
I have no clue but he is beautifully shot. He can be in National Geopgraphics magazine.
Nice work ….
