A good looking image presented here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of the visitor and the visited. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

A great macro photo of this spider on a petal. You show extraordinary detail, including the hairs on his legs. A very good entry into the contest.

Wow Steve ! This is incredible ! What a fantastic entry for this contest and I am thankful that I am viewing this one on my screen rather than
in person, the spider is amazing , it appears to be quite large . It couldn't have chosen a better flower , that bright orange petal showcases the spider so well .
I love that bit of purple too
The spider is so well captured with spot on focus, this image is sharp and clear and your exposure is perfect, all colors and tones appear natural. You have brought out such well defined detail in spider , look at its legs !
The vignette works to hold the viewers eye on the spider.
Well composed in the vertical format. Well presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!

I think this is an even better photo than the one you posted recently of the green spider. The orange petal of some sort of flower still looks like flame, but I like that we can see more of the purple/blue part of it.
The spider is also sharper and it is indeed clear and well defined details to be seen in every part of it. The exposure is spot on.
The tall format is perfect, and the vignette you have added works well. I think this is a great looking and well taken photo Steve, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

You are more than welcome Steve. I thought this was a Bird of Paradise, but wasn't quite sure.
