Lovely. Its sharp. f16 and still this limited depth of field. It is tough to get higher dof when you are so close to the subject. I am surprised there are no takers for your Beer. :D

Wow! Looks like an alien! By the Abdomen, I would say its a lynx spider, but lynx spiders are usually not so hairy... I've got a record shot of one if you want to compare, please reply...

Abhishek,

Almost certainly not a lynx, but some species of jumping spider. I agree that the pattern on the abdomen is very lynx-like. They tend to jump on the lens when you are photographing them, an action that usually has me jumping out of my skin!

Compare this...
This is an img of a GREEN JUMPING SPIDER I found in google imgs. This is however the type found in queensland, australia. Looks similar, though not same.
