Thanks for all the nice comments. This photo was taken at a distance of about six inches (15 cm) under flourescent light with a Canon EOS10d. The lens is a Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro that is an absolute joy to use. The spider is some type of crab spider and he was about the size of a small shirt button.
