of what I see if I spend some time.

Would not want to meet this spider. Well done macro shot. Really like the colors and contrast. Posted: 10/08/2018 22:40:23
Hi Neal, great shot of the spider, nice and clear. The contrast of the brown on the green looks good. Even though the background is somewhat in focus the spider stands out. Posted: 10/12/2018 07:17:24

cool, and by that I mean icky, spider. The spider could be a little sharper.
There is a lot going on in the scene. Rys square crop
and dodge and burn and use come color blend mode layers to make the background less distracting Posted: 10/21/2018 03:45:16

Hello Neal: Lisa's crop into a square mount and then darkening the edges really helped this picture. Your attention in now focused on the spider instead of showing so much habitat. Posted: 10/21/2018 13:40:10
Neal, nice macro and I like the colors and the composition too. To me, it would gain from narrower depth of field and less light on some of the green that kept catching my attention. Posted: 10/26/2018 15:36:27
Greetings Neal,
I like the spider. Good focus (Just in time for Halloween, scary!)As mentioned above the background could be a little more out of focus. Posted: 10/28/2018 12:05:44
