This is a lynx spider that I found on the vacant lot next door. I really hate spiders so to take a picture of one is pretty major. I did some experimenting with this one. I ran topaz adust, curves, usm, resize and save for web.

there's a fine line when trying to increase the dof with photoshop, if it weren't for the halos that gaussian blur gives, i would have scored it higher.
Well, If a bug were to fly into that web he can bet his little bug ears that he isn't getting free. He can bet that the big spider is going to be snacking on his head. I like the photo and I think that the web looks great. Messy or not, it portrays the actual life that this particular spider has to live to survive. SO, I must give it a 7
:)
Gorgeous golden colors. Love the soft focus effect and the way you have the spider sharp and crisp. You did really well with the focus on the spider and the editing. Dreamy and pretty. Very nice! A lot to look at!
My photo is doing terrible. :( No clue. Yours HAS to be dong better that a 5.0. :)
