Many species have far more than 2 eyes. This photo shows the 8 eyes of a green crab spider:

Photographer Paweł Błachowicz captured a stunning close-up of a green crab spider's eyes, earning recognition in the prestigious Nikon Small World competition.

 

The intricate image reveals the spider's multiple eyes in vivid detail and even shows a few tiny hairs that look like needles, showcasing the beauty and complexity of nature on a microscopic scale.

 

Green crab spiders, known for their ambush hunting style and vibrant coloration, are typically found lurking on leaves and flowers.

 

This captivating shot highlights their remarkable adaptations, offering a glimpse into a world often hidden from the naked eye. Błachowicz’s work is a testament to the power of microscopy in unveiling the extraordinary details of everyday life forms
