Nice, but the bricks are distracting

i can't help thinking that a similar pic showing , say, a butterfly, would get more and better ratings than this spider. An interesting one, with a nice big stabilimentum. Background is a little too present.

You wouldn't believe me, but I'm terrified of spiders! It took a lot of guts to take this shot, and I'm not planning on taking a similar shot in the near future! Maybe there is a lot of people out there that feels the same about spiders....?
