crab spider

Haven't posted for a while

So my wife says to me last night "check out this spider on my laptop."
Now before you think she is awesome brave and calm, though she is awesome, I need to let you know that this spider is no more than 5mm across!
Its a crab spider and is often found sitting on leaves and flowers waiting for prey to arrive. How it got inside I do not know.
The whole spider shot is a 12 shot stack and was taken with an MP65. Full shot at 1X and close up at 5X magnification
