Nice detail in the web and good colors on the spider.

A bit more DOF would be nice to see what unfortunate critter is on the lunch menu. Perhaps some selective sharpening might help.

Both your spiders have been great in very different ways. Normally I would like more of the web in focus, but with this gal's posture I think you made the right decision to get a better angle on the spider.

Very nice, Harvey. The out-of-focus web doesn't bother me at all, as the real action is with the spider and the center part of the web. This is a great shot!

Excellent shot, Harvey. The web against the great background or the detailed spider with the cool pose would make great shots by themselves, but combining them in the same image really makes for something special. Great work.
