Greetings from the Critique Club
My first impression when I saw this photograph is that I LOVE the web. It feels like we are right on top of it looking at the spider. The contrast of the bright webbing and the dark background is amazing. The depth of field is very good. The bokeh really helps the depth of field. Great job using a low f/stop.
The composition is very good as well. There is plenty of negative space around the spider, and the rule of thirds works well, as the spiders "hump" falls right where the imaginary lines would be.
I realize how difficult it must have been to get this shot, but I think the focus could be sharper. In a technical challenge, such as macro, viewers votes are directly related to sharpness. Had the spider been sharper, I think this photo would have done exceptionally well.
As a wish list, or possible next steps, it would be nice to see the spiders face. In this photograph, his facade is blocked by his legs.
All around, a very nice photo. Keep up the good work.
