Doug, I think it would be nice if there were more contrast between the flower and the spider so s/he would show up more. At first the spider just looked like part of the flower.

I think the spider looking like the flower is supposed to be the point (for the spider). I like it just like this. I like the angle for the dark BG you chose too. I also like the fuzzy detail on the leaves (or whatever you call those) behind the flower. :toast:

Nice photo. What was the aperture that you used to give such a wide depth of field. Did you use a flash?

This is a killer shot, Doug. Excellent. I might crop a little off the sides to get in even closer. :toast: :toast:

Hello Doug,

Very nice image. Excellent job of getting the DOF to make this shot effective. I also like the even lighting and great details. A well crafted image. :toast:
