Yellow is the New Green, Pt. 2 - _TNY_8050S3
This pretty yellow thing is actually a subadult green huntsman spider (Micrommata virescens).
In a little while, he will turn bright green, except for the abdomen that will stay red and yellow, but for now the name certainly appears a bit misleading.
This is the only huntsman spider (Sparassidae) in Sweden and not very large by huntsman standards, but still quite attractive, wouldn't you agree?
It's a focus stacked shot, made from three exposures and put together using Zerene Stacker. Also, this is one of the first shots I've done with my new Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM, replacing my older Canon 100mm macro. So far it's looking very good!
