Thin-legged Wolf Spider

This spider gave me a big scare. The flash startled it and it jumped up.
I didn't think this kind of spider would or could jump, after all it is not a jumping spider.
I was fairly close and when the view through the camera came back to me he was nowhere to be found.
Needless to say I jumped back. I made him jump, and he made me jump too.
The two of us were jumping all over the place.

Nikon D2x ,Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 Ai-S Micro
