Outstanding job in placing DoF on this even at f/11. I am assuming that this is a crop as well since the magnification ratio os so high.
I also love the catch light in the spider's eyes which to me suggests an off-camera flash at maybe 45° elevated and to the right?
Great job!

Thanks for the comment. Yes,it is a crop. Havent got the chance to play around with extreme macro, yet.

The light actually comes from my Pentax AF540FGZ with a little bit of modification for its diffuser. Poor man's macro flash

What Stefan said. Brilliant shot. Thought he was going to jump out and bite me.
