Great shots of a beautiful spider -- and spiders are not noted for their beauty.

Where were these taken ?

most of my shots were taken using the humble Kitlens Nikkor 18-55mm reverse mounting with DIY lighting which i learned from this forum particularly from SteB and Kurt of Orionmystery

Great shots!

What model flash is that?

Is there a thread or website that details how to make such a lighting rig?

wonderfull shots...

Looks like he's sizing you up... Which reminds me of a praying mantis that I was shouting... I was at 60 cm distance .. he noticed me, turned around, looked straight at me for a second or two and than attacked me. I was looking throug the viewfinded at that moment and saw it all happen in great magnification. The critter scared the hell out of me as I was not expecting it.

Love those close-ups.
