Red-faced Jumping Spider (part 2)

As promised, here are a couple more of this cool little spider.
I don't know whether there is something about this spider or whether I was being inconsistent in both my photo captures and processing, but it certainly seems like the results of these photos are wildly varied. Today's set, you will see, are much brighter and the colors stand out better - particularly the red. Perhaps it was an angle of the light kind of thing, or perhaps just user error on my part. Regardless, I think these shots show off this spider a bit better than the previous one.
Technical Data: Canon EOS 7D, Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5x Macro, 1/250 sec at f/11 (except first image at f/16). Canon Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX in ETTL mode. ISO 100. RAW processing and cropped in Adobe Camera Raw.
The parade of spiders will continue as I have a couple others to share, so stay tuned!
