thanks.

It was the left over of molted body and head of a Jumping Spider (Salticidae)

Spiders do that: Molt - a process to shed off their old skin and grow
 

#25. Crab spider with prey.

Wow nice. May I know what kind of flash are you using and where you shot these crawlers ?

I have used a single Canon 270 exII speedlite on a 60D body. My latest setup is the Nikon 2x SB200 twin flash mounted on a bracket on D810 body. Manual select flash power.

These subjects are shot all over Singapore nature trails ...Dairy farm, Bangkit, bukit timah, bukit batoh, chestnut park only a few are shot in malaysia .. Panti forest.
 

TWO THUMBS up: THIS PIC 16 IS GOOD VERY GOOD..:

Spider babies are really tiny (2-3mm) but colorful. You cannot view their details through naked eyes.
The shot was highly cropped.

Amazing skills!!

Thank you. It was the nature which attracted me to macro photography.
It was all my kakis which I get to know thru CS and FB (2009 till to date) which help me along to improve.
They know who they are. My thanks to them too.
