Is the spider over-sharpened?

Good use of flash, but a little overexposed.

The background bokeh is stronger than the Foreground.

Ack; another spider! I am going to have to get over my phobia of looking at them :::shudders:::. OK, a little bright but very nicely composed and the bokeh is complementary to the horrid little arachnid.

7 - Oh, that's nice. I know how difficult this is as I tried it. Nice focus on the spider whilst retaining good fore bokeh of both kinds. Spider does get a little lost in all the white, but I'm sure tweaking curves/contrast was also difficult.
