watch out above you little black widow .. is that a shoe i see coming down to squash you .. :)
i like your take on the challenge .. of course .. as i love insects and spiders .. and i'm loving your almost desaturated look except for the red of the spider .. :)
i just hope he's alive .. i'm not that keen on dead insect shots .. :)

I love the write-up, especially the “good news you got top five bad news no ribbon”.

I feel you put this together brilliantly.

Every so often I miss, by shortsightedness or obscure principle or sense of ignorance about the challenge, voting. This time it was mere shortsightedness. "relief, then grief," by my lights, is a very fine image with strong emotional gravity. I can't see me voting less than an 8 here. I have great admiration for your ability to create this scene, which does nail the full breadth of the challenge rather than being a slapped on title for an extraneous image. Sorry I snoozed past the challenge.
