PAUL ANOTHER GREAT SHOT, YOU HAVE A NICE BACKYARD FULL OF LIFE
I LOVE HOW TACK SHARP THE SPIDER IS AND THE CATCH LIGHT IN ALL FOUR EYES SPARKLE.
DOF IS JUST RIGHT MUST OF BEEN PRETTY SHALLOW.

MAYBE A LITTLE ADJUSTMENT BRUSH IN LR TO BRING DOWN THE GREEN IN THE BACKGROUND BEHIND THE SPIDER, AND CROP TO REMOVE THE GREEN ON TOP LEFT CORNER.
BUT THAT'S MINOR STILL LOVE THIS LITTLE FELLA   Posted: 05/05/2020 15:37:29

Nice capture. Sharp and the lighting is great. Might suggest cutting down the image on the right and top a bit to enlarge
the subject.   Posted: 05/10/2020 16:14:48

Hi Paul: Very sharp detail on the head and many eyes of the spider. Agree with Neil the image could be cropped from the top and right to enlarge it in the frame; then as Richard has mentioned the diagonal light green blade of grass or what ever needs to be darkened as it detracts from the spider. Good interesting subject.   Posted: 05/10/2020 21:39:52



 
Hello Paul, nice clear photo. Background has nice Bokeh. The only thing I would do is crop more on the spider. Very nice.   Posted: 05/17/2020 07:36:12

Hi Paul,
Great focus on the spider. The eyes really stand out particularly with the catch lights in all four eyes. I am in agreement with cropping as other members have suggested.   Posted: 05/28/2020 11:36:33
