The composition of this shot is quite good, although I would think a tighter crop may have revealed more detail in the web, and in the raindrops.
The photo doesnt give the impression of wind (I understand you had trouble with a lack of wind).

Theres not much else to say on this photo, it shows good focus, a nice composition, good lighting.

Thank you,
trouble was that in that week to enter the competition it was completely calm, no wind at all so I had to come up with something and this was the best I could think of. I am glad you like it :)

I have taken similar shots recently (see profile), more of a macro shot would have enhanced the impact I think - good lighting with black nackdrop.

Spooky. This looks like it would be so much better at a higher resolution. I love images of spider webs. I wish this one was sharper with a bit more contrast.
