That reminds me, its about time I had some lunch :biggrin:
Smashing image, with depth of field very well controlled.

Another cracker David. The dark background sets off the spider and web nicely. Glad I've had my lunch :wink: :biggrin:

Hello David.

Works for me good detail and the dark background really helps make the web stand out.

Nice capture but the colour of the central part of the spider and prey item looks really quite muddy, maybe you have tried to burn them down a bit..? Otherwise I to like the use of the BG to show the web to great effect.

Kind regards,

Brett :toast:
