Ground Spider, Gnaphosidae ssp. - a photo on Flickriver

            It's autumn, and time to lay in firewood for the upcoming winter months. I found this spider in my wood pile as I rotated out the remnants of last year's firewood and began stacking a newly delivered load. My best guess on identification is that this is a ground spider, family Gnaphosidae.

Since it was nestled on a piece of firewood I positioned in on a wood chip to simulate its natural environment.

Technical info - 135 stacked images (2 separate passes.) Approximately 3x lifesized. Reverse mounted 24mm lens without additional extension (though some extension from step down rings and the reserse adapter itself. Pentax K3.
