Spider

I don't know if spiders are insects, but it seemed the closest category.

Any constructive feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,

Dana

Technically spiders are arachnids and not insects, but I agree insects are the closest category.  That or perhaps nature, either way.  I don't filter when browsing images up for critique anyway.  

Normally I am not a huge fan of selective color in a photograph.  I have been guilty of applying that technique myself, but for the most part it seems to be an over-applied cliche.  However this is one of those images where I find myself rather enjoying it.  The grey background really helps the web and the spider stand out.  It is clear what I am supposed to be looking at in this image.  Like a lot of people I rather detest the surprise visit from these eight-legged critters.  I do love to photograph them when I get the chance though, outdoors of course.  Any spider I find inside my home ultimately meets it's demise if I get the chance.  

Great photo, keep it up!  

Dana,

Nice capture of the. I'd suggest a tighter crop with a portrait orientation. Jim
