That you for sharing a wonderful story of nature. you could turn this into an abstract painting. Now tell me how did you do the background. The colours you have chosed works so well with the purple colour of the spider. Many thanks for sharng as I found it of interest

Hi Sandy, Thanks for the Great review! To create the background I embossed the image and then put two transparencies of the Frac filter over it.The spider was on the side of the house and cement was the background. Glad you liked what I did. I am honored! :o) Helvi

Hello my friend,
This is such a deviation from the art that you usually do.
It is quite an interesting
way you have presented it.I'm
sure that you did a bit of work on the background.I also
like the embossing technique
you used for this work.
It's different but I like it!

Oh! I don't like spiders. But you have captured the very fragile legs of the spider. Oh a tangled web we weave. It is very creative and a bug lover would want this on their wall. I like your background color. Nice.

Wonderful capture Helvi. Love the way you caught all the legs, looks like a well conceived design. Love the embossed layer and the frac layers. Quite a creative flair. Wonderfully done.

A gruesome sight and one I often see in my garden! Still, even spiders have to make a living and I am not a fan of daddy long legs! The image is well framed with a very pleasing background colour. The layers you have used make the image look like a drawing rather than a photograph. It is quite pleasing to look at but I prefer nature images to appear like photographs since they appear more natural.

Hi Susan, I like doing both natural and mixed media photos. Sometimes I just like to be artistic! :o) I really liked the look of this, but you certainly have the right to say it's NOT your cup of tea! I Wish you liked it a little more but appreciate the 4.5 rating. Thank you for stopping by to review! :o) Helvi

Yes I understand - we all like to experiment. I do like the image, hence my mark, but for some reason prefer nature, i.e. birds and insects, to look natural. When these affects are added to flowers though my attitude changes as some wonderful images are produced. With all the software available to us nowadays I am wondering whether sometimes we are just trying to be too clever improving on nature, which we will never be able to do!

Wow! That is truly amazing that such a little guy is able to take care for the much bigger pray. I guess he has supper for a few days now. I am not sure if the emboss filter enhance or hurt the unique capture. I have the feel that may some detail got lost to the emboss.

Hi Cleo, Since you are unsure about the use of the emboss filter in this, I am particularly honored by your six star review. THank you SO much! I'm thrilled you enjoyed the shot! :o) Helvi
