Good macro, especially considering this is likely hand-held. 'Works' as is, but perhaps a nudge rotation for symmetry, not sure. The detail is good on the 'body' and legs, just a fraction of blur, but minor and again likely due to this being hand-held. I might be seeing things, but top left on the body.. actually looks like it might be a spiderling, could just be more of those 'hairs', or 'spikes'. 70% sure this is a St Andrews Cross spider, if interested and you didn't know.

Nice rich colors. Like the pose and composition/crop. 'Works' fine as is, but perhaps if more of the fore stone/pebble path and the other foot, may have made this better, or just 'another' good, shot, in my opinion. The focus just a fraction sharper too, but difficult. Really like the dof, especially the way the long tail 'fades'.

Composition is ok. The subject matter could have been better. The image quality is ok. Has potential of being really creative. - 5

And, as you can see by this thread, macrothing isn't the only one who thinks that way.

Good capture, as is this portfolio one;

I gave this a 2 - didn't meet the Challenge strongly enough in my opinion. As good a shot as this is, the Challenge 'weight' got priority for me. edit: wording & after reading your comments (in the thread) I can make more of a connection, but alas, the 'comments' are not there whilst we vote. Also, this isn't a 'witch hunt' (although if it is, I say the voters are burned at the stake first, then the photographer, but that's just my opinion). Basically: you submitted a good 'long shot', the voters 'used the scale as they wanted', that's it. It's the 'age old debate' here at DPC, or at least one of them. edit #2 - condensed
