Excellent image, Sandy.
Love the gleaming web structures over the muted background - which contrast wonderfully with the rather lurid colours of the spider and prey.
Best, S

Hi

A smashing shot - an excellent dynamic composition and DOF/focus on the money imo; outstanding

All the best
Matthew

A dynamic angle and a nice look at the spider's face. The web lines add nice dimension to the image as well. Fill flash would help reduce contrast.
