One very hairy spider. One photo sure to creep girls out.

Firstly, the quality of your shot is very good. The colors are very vibrant, and the image itself is incredibly detailed, right down to the spider's hairs, which I find beautiful yet somewhat creepy, in the same way a chocolate is flavourful because it's bitter).

The spider is also somewhat expressive; I look at it and find a face, but I can't decide if it is a stern face, a jokingly stern one, or if it is just simply a troll face (in my humble opinion).

I also like how the lighting effects worked really well to give the picture different flavours of green, and it gave the spider a very good visual effect, highlighting all the details on it's body, right down to those little markings.

However, one possible suggestion that I would like to point out is that, if possible, perhaps it would be better to include the spider's left leg within the main focus rather than having it slightly blurred?
