Interesting - Good color, like the different shapes, like the dof. Not sure exactly what it is that I'm looking at but overall solid photo.

Great location and subject but the highlights are a bit distracting to warrant a higher score. B&W works well.

Very nice. Thank you for your kind comments!

The hint of a victim, the blur, the macro close up and strong linear elements of the 'teeth' (what are they called?) all combine to create a powerfully oppressive feeling, claustrophobic and shivery. Nicely done.

Thank you! This spider loved taking pictures. I entered it in the Michael Jackson and Life and Death . I took many other pics as well that weren't posted that turned out great. Every morning it was ready for another meal. It did really well for itself. I didn't have the privelage of seeing eggs and babies. Must've been exciting.
