Were you able - did you actually see the spider? That foot looks more like an insect to me. FYI: at the end of each leg a spider has a single moderately long segment called a tarsus with claws at the tip; at the end of an insect leg there are are several very short segments then the claws, and insect can lay these multi-segments flat something like a "foot," Spiders do not have a "foot" in the way insects do. Those legs are very small to see clearly, but they look more like an insect multi-segment "foot" that a spider tarsus to me.

Unfortunately, I saw them only in photo... so no, I was not able to check. Though in our country spiders are most common in flowers, but cannot guarantee, of course.

Love these, especially the first one. I love lilies as subjects! There is no EXIF data, so please tell us your lens and apereture--I am guessing f 1.4.
