Paul Harrison, Peacock Spiders of Perth, WA (Animal 2020)

I've been photographing these small but colourful jumping spiders for a couple of years now. They can be found in the coastal dunes and urban parks of Perth as well as the forests of the SW of WA. They are a challenge to photograph but all my photos are taken in their natural habitats using diffused flash and focus stacking when they sit still for long enough!
