I love how the dark blue background lit your subject up. Great capture!

Best: Still indeed..clean colors, excellent exposure control
Worst: for what the image tries to accomplish, I believe it can't be improved upon.

very nice, but the crop is very boring must say, the photo has totally lost the dynamics, yea i know it actually should be non-dynamic ;-) because it's "still-life" photo but nevertheless i think with wider crop to the left the photo would be pure 10 in my eyes, now it's not ... NHF.

Precision really is the operative word here - just brilliant snapping.

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Very clean, crisp focus! You also captured some terrific color and a great depth of field.

Lighting: Terrific use and manipulation of lighting in RAW to yield a very nice contrast between the lit subject and the dark background while not losing any of the web detail.

Composition/Content: Also very nice. The web provides a great flow to encourage the viewer's eye to roam the entire frame.

My Opinion: Well-seen and well-captured. This is also a very creative way to meet this challenge nicely. Well done!
