Good environmental image of both the spider and the mushroom. Tricky exposure, but handled perfectly. The spider stands out well on the mushroom; otherwise, he'd be lost in the scene.

Nice placement of the spider with the composition, he's very stark against the mushroom and that is perfect. As Scott said great job with the exposure.

Tricky shot, well done. Looks like that spider has had a hard row of it.
