Right click on yr photo in flickr, copy the url address and paste into yr mesage. You are trying to shoot the orchid or the Lynx (spider)? if you want to shoot the orchid, find an angle to avoid the stem in front of it, else just find another orchid without obstruction. If its the spider you are after, zoom in. its too small.

Hi Bro, nice try on the flower.
However, before you take any shot, you need to conceptualise on what do you want to take. Flower or the spider. You need to have a focal of interest to draw the viewers to your photo.
Secondly, watch out for the foreground / background. You have unintentiobally introduced a stem infront of the photo which has spolit the composition.

Thx you Deswitch and USM for the kind words.. Pointers noted and will bear that in mind when taking future shots... I was trying to take the orchid at first, but suddenly came the spider, so I thought it might be a little interesting to add a spider. But I get the point that both of you are trying to say. I muz find a subject so that viewers know wat exactly I trying to show. In chinese there's a proverb call " drawing legs on the snake" and this can be applied to the photo... ;D As for the stem, I really hate myself for not taking tat into consideration when taking the photo. Thx you once again for ya comments... I'll take note of it and try to improve.

Hi Bro,
Nice color man. Sunset shot from the window.
Unfortunately, the cloud has blocked the lower portion of the sun.
