Great Idea, Execution and Composition. The only reason I will not favorite this is that my slight Arachnapobia will smack me everytime I look at my faves. : )
Poor thing is missing a few legs. Harsh photo, but somehow suits the subject matter. I'd prefer more of a background/environment, but that's a personal taste kinda thing.
I gave this photo a 9 because it is an amazing capture, but it gives me the creepy-crawlies. :) Probably not an image I would choose to hang on my wall, but would be great in a nature magazine!
