Lichen Huntsman Spider

Blending In. Finalist, Arachnids. A lichen huntsman spider blends perfectly into a tree trunk covered in moss and lichen in Agumbe, India. Annadana: “During a trip to the Western Ghats, one of India’s richest biodiversity hotspots, I came across countless fascinating macro species. Among them was this lichen huntsman spider, perfectly blending into a moss and lichen covered tree trunk. I used a wide-angle lens to reveal its remarkable camouflage and slowed the shutter to capture the soft blue bokeh of light filtering through the forest canopy.”

Stunning camouflage. At first, I couldn’t see it.
