Love this image Scott !!!!! I like the detail and dof Have had lots of trouble coming up with one of these that I like !!! Must have been a very still day !!! I like this image a lot !!!!

I like it as well. I especially like the fact you photographed him through the web and you caught him with his prey. My quibble is at the bottom, I would have not let the frame interest with the thicker part of the web (just above "rights" in your signature). Minor nit but it does catch my eye.

I like the centered composition here and am generally a big fan of pics showing a spider with its breakfast box. This image would also work in quadratic format.

Nikon D200, ...

Good match of camera and subject color ;):D

Best,
Sven
