Lovely work, Joshi. You forgot to say what lens you used for this and other technicals would be nice as well - it sure makes it easier to critique the image when you include all the pertinent information.

I love the angle and you sure got great details on the spider. If this were mine, I think I'd clone out the two OOF areas - the fuzzy area at the top/back of the spider and the OOF area on the left side (maybe another leg?) They don't seem to be pertinent to the photograph and, IMO, detract from the great job you did on the rest of the spider.

Great job, Joshi! This is my favorite of your images. I agree with Jules' cloning suggestions, although the leg hairs may make it challenging. I also think you could tone down the bright areas just a little. Very well done. :5

Hey Joshi, this is certainly one of the best images you've posted here! The pose looks great and the colors and exposure look good. Jules has some good suggestions which will make this one look ever better.

Very nice for a little point and shoot camera! :S3:

Love the head-on, eye-level POV on this Joshi. That is one very cool looking spider! Great capture!

[Steve Maxson]

Hi Joshi. You have an excellent eye-level shooting angle and the spider gave you a great pose. Good sharpness within your DOF. If this was mine, I would be tempted to clone the OOF leg sticking out to the left - as suggested by Jules. Overall, you did very well considering some of the limitations of your little camera. :S3:

Hey Joshi,
Can't add much to above and I agree about some of the suggestions. This is one of your best. Very nice job!
