Taken of a spider having just caught his lunch, took a number of photos, was hard to get the focus in the small place that was available.Used a flash, this is my 1st attempt, so look forward to learning from the comments, great site aand lots of constructive comments.

Peter...you really need to make sure you upload an image at 640 pixel as the detail is lost in small images. This looks like it could be a great photo...but the difficulty of the vision restricts it from its full potential.
Getting past the gross factor (it wasn't easy) this is a unique entry in this challenge. I wonder if I would have felt less vulnerable if the photo had been shot showing the back of the cricket instead of the underbelly?
ugh!This isn't even appealing or interesting to me in any form or fashion! I am sorry but if this is YOUR personal best of 2005, maybe you need to read some books or take a class.
The subject looks interesting but I had to look a few times and real hard to get it. Most basic elements to improve:
- crop it to the maximum limit allowed for DPC ie. 640px (see the tutorial available)
- overall focus could be a lot sharper
The light looks ok but it's hard to tell since it's too small to appreciate the details.
please read the tutorial for preparing images for challenges. you have no doubt lost a lot of votes due to your image size. as best i can tell, this would have scored a LOT higher if the image had been larger. don't be discouraged, and DON'T QUIT! better luck next time.
Well. . .you're probably hearing alot about the size -- that's a biggie with this bunch. And unfortunately, a cricket stuck in a web isn't that appealing of a photo, and it's a little soft on the focus, so I'm afraid this one isn't one of my higher rated photos. Sorry.
