Kiara Macro III

Black and Red ant mimic jumper

Perfection in mimicry: the Red ant mimic spider

My half-day outing at Taman Rimba Kiara was a well-spent affair.This time, I hooked up with Macro photography master Kurt G and old friend Derrick and
was introduced to three other new people in the ever growing peer group.I tested my new diffuser design and found that there were obvious flaws on it.Nevertheless, it produced some really cool shots of jumping spiders, ant mimic spiders and
some random bugs.Since my focal point was on spiders, I did find a black and red ant mimic at the Rimba Kiara
park.The best find was a red ant mimic with limbs of an ant mimic crab spider. This was the first time I've ever seen such a creature.
