Fantastic, Balan. One of my favorite spider/web images of the year. In addition to the super detail in the orb weaver, I like the comp/perspective, the web design, and the soft color in the bg. Because of the dew, it would have been interesting to see a version with more detail in the web, but I like this presentation a lot.

I agree with Scott, very nice.
Excellent look at the web, POV, and nice details in your subject Balan.
Even those squeamish arachnophobic's out there will like this

Balan, I think the comps works very well here. All the dew on the web is a plus, and you were wise to include it.

Oh Balan, this is wonderful The comp and POV are fantastic. And I love the "foggy" effect on the web. And the dew drops are just icing on the cake.

Balan - This is nice !. I like it when artistry combines with magnification. The nice web draws me into the frame, right upto the sharp spider.

What a fine catch on the spider against a soft, bright background. If the spider was holding still, a stack would be a good way to get some of web sharp.

I'm a sucker for spider webs. The soft focus of web against the spider work very well.
