I took this picture on a brisk early morning when the sun was just rising. It took many shots to get the photo right. The sun had to hit the spider web in a certain angle for it to show. I took about 20 different shots. In photoshop all I did to the picture was crop the sides and change the color contrast and made the picture a little lighter to make the web stand out as much as possible. After completing the picture I think it turned out really well. The only thing I wish was different about the picture is I wish there had been a spider in the web.

I really love the lighting of this shot. It's amazing how much you got the web to stand out against the background. I think you might have gone a little overboard in Photoshop though because the leaves are so bright green that they look fake and you loose color in some places because of the sun-glare. Also try a lower ISO next time to get rid of some of the graininess. Overall though this is a brilliant concept and I love how well you were able to capture the web.
This picture is really neat. I love how you can see the web. It looks as if it is bouncing off of the leaves. Nice job.
It looks like you did work very hard for this picture and it turned amazing. Good job! I think the web looks nicer without the spider. :)
I like this picture. I think it’s over all pretty good. I think you’re pretty brave to stand in front of a spider web for that long to get a shot! :]
This is really cool. I like the lighting from the sun and how it brings out the spider web against the leaves. I think it might almost be too much though. There are a few leaves that look white because they’re so bright, so just be careful with that. Otherwise, the green is very vibrant.

I really like your picture I like the color of the leaves. Really good lighting.
I really like your photo! Your lighting is very good and so is your focus. The one thing that I love about this picture is that I’m able to see the spider web so clearly with the line pattern in it. Keep up the great work! It very good, no kidding.
The bright green in this picture is very nice and the spider web looks really cool. This photo could have been better though, there isn’t really a main focus its just a bunch of green, try to find a subject and a more flattering angle.
This is a really fascinating picture. It really grabbed my attention when I first looked at it. The spider’s web is in great focus, and it’s hidden just enough to make is seem almost sneaky. Good job! It’s a very interesting subject and you presented it in an original way. :]
The one great thing about this photo is the colors. They’re vibrant and bold. The hard thing about this photo is that the depth of field is awkward. The background is not fully out of focus but it’s not completely in focus either. If I were you I would have picked on or the other.
I like this picture a lot. I love how the spider web stands out from the leaves. But it looks like some of the leaves are blown out with white. Try to darken them a little bit.

I like this picture but I wish you would have zoomed in more on the web to catch more of it in all its glory. The sun shining adds a nice touch to the photo also giving you better lighting. Next time though when you have a busy shot like this zoom in more on the subject. Other than that this is pretty good.
This is an awesome photo; I love the color and the spider web. You did a great job with the lighting too.
