I saw an article in amatuer photographer last week about this kind of work, although it was about super macro the guy was using dead specimens and getting a hell of alot closer and placing the subject on a pin and using half a pingpong ball behind as a defuser. Amazing article well worth a read.
Thanks, Lee. Yes, live spider. Alive and jumping . You can find them easily just about anywhere here in Malaysia.

I think I've seen those extreme high mag macro (>10X) you're talking about. There's someone in FM that posts that.
