I'm never satisfied and always striving to improve. This photo needs to be in sharper focus, but I've reached the limit of what can be done. One of the obstacles to getting a sharp shot was a breeze that I couldn't feel but could see was moving the delicate web. Autofocus was useless in this case, and manually focusing was tedious. That's not to say it wasn't fun!
