I bet this sends shudders down the spines of people who are afraid of spiders. Your image gives a sense of impending trouble, as if all it needs is a little organ music before it slowly scampers onto someone's neck, or pounces on some victim from out of the shadow. Very nice capture. The bits of spider silk are great too.

This image could have used a little fill flash. The positioning of the spider is really good; however, the lighting draws my attention to the plant to the right of the spider instead of on the spider itself.

Some more contrast might have helped, methinks.

Love the color tones on this one. It is really pleasing and soothing. If I would change anything, it would be to perhaps have bent the left stem out of the way at the time of shooting so that it would not have distracted from the beauty of the lace.

I think B/W was a good choice here. She seems so calm and content just enjoying the whisper of the shell.

Nice capture. It's sharp and has good color. The background is a little too busy for me. I would try getting closer if possible and also move that dominate background stem out of the way. :)
