Good backlighting on this spiderman web..... excellent image and a pleasure to look at..... to me the evidence of enhancement or processing is overshadowed by the beauty and structure of the subject. Muted dark background integrates quite naturally through and around the web. An interesting and extraordinary natural structure.

This would be a pretty good picture if the quality of it wasn't so bad. It's a shame really...

Happy Halloween. The contrast between the sharply focused web and the completly out of focus background is very nice/ The over processed look works well here, even the grainy background. It is a sylized image of a spider web, you can than the spider for the wonderful repeating patterns in the lines. You can thiank yourself for mimicking the radiating pattern in the leaves of the background. I like the way the image reads from top left to lower right and the center of the web draws the eye back into the scene.

It looks like the contrast was turned up so high as to make everything grainy. It might have been better to just let the light on the web be the focus.

i'd like it more if the drops were more detailed.
Also the background is very grainy.
