Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Very clean, crisp focus! You also captured some terrific color and a great depth of field.

Lighting: Terrific use and manipulation of lighting in RAW to yield a very nice contrast between the lit subject and the dark background while not losing any of the web detail.

Composition/Content: Also very nice. The web provides a great flow to encourage the viewer's eye to roam the entire frame.

My Opinion: Well-seen and well-captured. This is also a very creative way to meet this challenge nicely. Well done!
