A four for you. Nicely composed, focus and exposure is good. I feel the orientation of the spider is wrong. I want to see a spider head, spider eyes and spider teeth. Well, at least something that looks like a head.
technically, well shot, though i can't see any messages in this web
a 7 from me, and that's generous given the fact that since the spider is so clearly detailed i'd like to just skip it
I like the depth of field. I find the brighter line in the background distracting. I'm wondering if it was possible to burn it a bit in processing, or to change your angle when shooting to have avoided that break in the shot.

Every time we get a Garden Orb Spider at our place my daughter names it Charlotte. The focus appears to be nicely on the spider but it doesn’t’ quite feel sharp enough. The background is a little distracting though it does bring in a domesticated feel. I do like the leading lines of the web. 6
The idea is good, but it is just a picture of a spider and its web. Nothing jumps out to me and gives me that wow look at that spider. To make it more interesting to me, I would have found a way to get a different background, and I would have tried to get more detail of the spider itself. Now my lenses aren't great, so maybe I wouldn't have been able to do any better myself, but if I could, that is what I would try.
This shot is definitely less suitable for the radiance of the novel. I do not like to see here the rear end of this creature that seems in search of food instead of weaving a marvel for our amazement.
5 for the effort
