Probably going to get killed on this one. But I think all nature is beautiful. Used a Canon EF 100mm 1:2.8 Macro lens and lens extender. Cropped and Sharpened slightly.

Ugh, I agree with your title, but I greatly dislike bugs! No points off for that though! The lack of focus in the foreground is hard for the eye to get past to see the "face" of the subject. 5
I'm afraid you'll get hammered with this one, but you probably know that already. I love critters, and have NO problems with this one, either, but even I wouldn't call it beautiful. Fascinating, though, in its wonderful macro detail.
I gave you an 9, not because I really like to watch spiders, but because this is just a beautiful capture of the creature. I went into the spider's world myself for quite a while, capturing their life and homes, you can find it at //pbase.com/lookheretitia in one of my albums.
Most interesting. Great colors. Good job of taking something that is not-so-beautiful and making it...well, I'm not so sure I can go as far as 'beautiful', but at least 'interesting'. <7>
