Now there's a character with big attitude! I like the posture - it has movement which IMO can make a big difference when photographing nature. You've captured a lot of nice detail in the spider too which shows up particularly well against the oof background leaf.

Nice shot Adrian.

He does look like he is paying attention to you Adrian. Look at the exotic colors on this guy. Very nice capture. We will be looking to see more exotic pics from Singapore
