This is what I do for unattractive angles being right handed I get the leaf or branch the Insect is on twist it around my fore/index finger on my left hand so the Spider/Caterpillar is facing me.
Holding the camera in my right hand I fire off a few shots there is always a couple there in focus.. Or you can put the Spider on your finger like Here
Jumping spiders love us humans and try talking to them I find it works for me. Only do it with friendly Spiders though.

Dew drops on Spider webs are good subjects for the cooler/wet weather so are > Refraction's in Dew Drops it works for Raindrops too.
There are so many subjects out there for Macro, Flies, Ants, Moss and Lichen and the list goes on, so Happy Shooting
Hey Mary Anne, thanks for the suggestions. The spiders were perching on their comfortable homes, so I decided to let them be. Not sure why this winter has been so desolate, I can't even spot a roach in my home (not that I'm complaning about the latter). I do agree wet spiders make attractive subjects, I might go back sometime with a waterspray. Or I might try my luck with bicentennial park or some bushwalking trails. Wish me luck
