Nice observation. The low angle enhanced the composition. The details are nice, the cob-web on it is also visible :). At 1/80 you got it nicely. Were you using a tripod? Thinking you could have moved a bit to the right and tried a vertical composition, just a suggestion. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Mrudul. I clicked this lying flat on the ground. No tripod used. I also have verticals, will post them later (will be away for a few days).

Not sure about the identification. I agree that the cobweb makes this image interesting. A vertical would have been good. Moving the camera more to the left to avoid the leaf on the right bottom would have been even better. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
