You get to visit some beautiful places! What a peaceful scene this is, I always feel calm when near water, I don't know what it is about it! I hope you enjoyed your time in Croatia and have many more beautiful images to show us! :o)

Now that I am not obsessing over several challenge entries I wanted to stop by and leave a comment on this one that you posted in the thread titled "Why oh WHY can't it be easy?". As quite a few pointed out that the bg is too gray rather than the bright white I think you were going for. I like the idea but a bright white background and sharper detail on the light bulb would help this compositional idea tremendously. You might want to try building a simple & easy Super Simple Light Tent. Playing around with a smaller aperature (6.3 or higher) and slower shutter speed (1/10 to 1/60)will net you sharper details in your main subject and quite possibly get a brighter white depending on what background you use & lighting you use (be careful of the tungsten light bulbs for they can give a yellowish cast to the image). Another thing that I found instrumental is adjusting the WB on your camera. For a recent shoot I changed the White Balance from Auto to Custom and found that it got rid of the awful yellow tinge or flat tinge in the photo.

Hey John, this is really quite good. In a lot of ways, I like yours better than mine. I rotated mine 180 degrees, to make it look more "normal" to people who don't hang upside down all day, sprayed the web with water to get it to show up better, and shot it with natural light at dawn, to get a little warmer light, but I think your spider is (a lot) sharper than mine, and I like the darkish green background a lot, better than my brown desert and lens flare background.

Although this isn't technically filling the frame, I like it a lot. What's with the voting trolls?
