It looks like a mask from an angle. Where does this belong. Hope someone will give a clue. Will show another angle.

This is an orb weaving spider (family Araneidae); specifically, it is a spiny orb weaver, Gasteracantha geminata - see http://flickr.com/photos/drsaji/2595500591/

I'd go for it. Very identical. Thanks suunto. That slideshow there could also bring up many of my to-be-identified spiders into view. That photographer himself is trying to identify some of them.
