This is really cool! I love how clearly you can see some parts of the web and there's a palette of colors in the back.

A not so happy day at the beach

Comment by CNovack:
This certainly has a feel of a captured candid moment of a child upset & crying (maybe even having a tantrum judging by the crossed arms and the feet in the act of stomping). You have some nice B&W tones throughout. I think the two main things that would have made the composition even stronger is angle of the shot and getting closer to the subject. The angle is from a standing position such that the sand dominates the backdrop like a wall - it might have been better to show the emotion from the child's stance which is lower to the ground and that would also mayhap shown a bit more of the beach/sky (blue happy sky in contrast with the upset/sad emotion). Getting a lower angle would bring the audience 'sitting' at the same level to your main subject thus letting us identify with the boy more. A closer crop would bring us up close and personal with your main subject: strengthening our connection and reaction to the mood and feel of the photo. (not voting)

Really beautiful. A bit dark for a wallprint, but very interesting to look at all the same.

My only critique of this shot is that I wish the spider was holding a laser gun while smoking a cigar. But since those don't exist at that size.. 10.

Oh I love this. There is something very magical about spiderwebs. Nice bokeh. My one nit is the "hot" spot in the upper left. I really like it.
