Yeah nice...I initially thought the shot apart from the wasp was in B&W which I thought was really cool. I think it is interesting and breaks from the norm a little bit. :toast:

I find the composition a bit off David. For me the left hand side of the picture is detracting from the image. I would crop out the two left hand stalks and concentrate on the detail to the right. You would still see the web and get the effect. Just an opinion.

Interesting shot David,

I agree that the left hand side could do with going :smile:
