Nicely caught David :smile:

Lovely colours on the unfortunate fly.

Excellent shot David. Impressive detail especially around the fly. I think personally I would have the subject closer to the rhs of the frame than the left but that is a very minor nit.

The position would work quite well with how Eric has suggested, it seems that the webbing would almost anchor the spider to the top RHS. Great detail and it's nice how the fly has added a dash more colour.

Nice detail David in both spider and fly. I think I would go with Eric regarding moving the image to the rhs. The dead fly? bottom right in the web also draws my eye. I think I might remove that but thats being picky. :wink: :wavey:
