Diaea variabilis

The White Flower Spider look similar to the Pink Flower Spider but less often seen. On their abdomen, there are many small dots on dirty white. Those markings are variable between individuals. Information from http://www.brisbaneinsects.com

Excellent shot, Mark. Great sharpness and really nice soft lighting. I like the head-on shot and the amount of DOF you've got.

What lens were you using? What were the settings? How did you light it?
