Spider setup

Spider setup
Here I am trying to get a shot of the anterior cheliceral teeth of a small spider. It was a tricky angle to get, so I used the partial covering method. The lighting setup is a bit different here. The tin foil is being used as a reflector. Note the holes - I sometimes use that sheet in a similar way to the cardboard square.
