    Wow, very cool! The dew drops are something else and put this image over the top! I find the two light areas at the bottom distracting, but all else looks great.

    Hi Daniel, very beautiful image. A nice even background would have made this over the top! The bright pink and white spots in the BG are a bit too distracting.

    Nicely done Daniel. I think that you nailed the exposure. The spider is more distracting than the BG but the spider makes the image so I would leave it :D

    I am not usually a fan of spiders, but Daniel, you made this one look great and the image holds my interest with the colors on its body, even some of the hairs on its legs, and the sharp dew drops. How do you spot these guys that are so small?

    This is great as is and I agree that a more even BG would put this one over the top.
    Well done!
