Default Jumpers are cute, but ....

Caught this at Yishun Park
Tried to find the ID of this spider but to no avail
my only suspicion is that, it's a species from the crab spider family

by the way, i feel that my shots are not pinsharp (see the eyes), because all the shots were taken handheld with the unforgiving breeze ...

#1 , #3 and #4 are good. But #4 suffer from a bit of lack of DOF. But great capture nevertheless. Havent seem this spider posted here, at least from what i know.

thanks!
what a waste isn't it...
time for me to invest in a monopod
and the spider is actually very tiny
because of my poor eyesight...focusing on the bugger was really tough
