Photographer's Comments
Walked around my work place to look for some photo opportunity. In case some of you are wondering, my work place is a warehouse with a small office space. That explains the presence of a spider in my office. Used my Raynox DCR 250 to magnify the spider further. I did a close crop for the photo, thus explaining why the spider's legs has been chopped. Comments on how to improve this photo, composition wise or post processing is highly appreciated.

Ahh.. this could be one of my fave photo so far. By cropping the photo, it shows that you are now more confident in producing the final product.

And applying the rule of third, your shot look more interesting. Nice job.

Despite the fact that I really don't like creepy crawlies, I must say that this is a good attempt at playing with angles with your shots. Although I'm a bit confused with the spider's position. It's upside down right? Hanging on top something. Hehe. Trying brightening the background and adding more contrast or saturation to the spider to bring it out more.

I'm attempting this same thing, only without the worry of skill. I just want it to be rewarding at the end of the year. Best of luck!
