Hi Mick,

I think you used a very small aperture, because the background is black.
For my opinion the background isn't favorably.
With a mixture of flashlight and natural light, you would get a more
natural picture.

Please have a look at my spider, you will see what I mean.

THe background is black because it is a night shot.
