The day before yesterday saw a really heavy fog at sunrise (we didn’t actually see a sunrise!). I knew that the spider webs would be beautiful and wasn’t disappointed, but from a photography point of view (excuse the pun), as the light slowly got better so the wind picked up. This shot isn’t as sharp as I would like (also on an old DSLR) but still an interesting web full of beads of moisture. The reflections are dormant vines and the trellis system.

Lovely delicate shot … and it’s a shame the wind always gets up at the wrong time! A weather person could tell us but I recall it’s something to do with the changing temperature as the sun rises – and viva versa as it sets …… ?
Thank you – yes that makes sense 🙂
sweaty little spiders have been dancing on a web…………………you caught that picture
so very cool Lisa
Thanks Matty
I’ve tried photographing spider-webs with drops too, it’s not very easy to compose this well…. – but I’ll take my hat off for yours here!
Thank you very much – yes I agree they aren’t easy 🙂

Beautiful image Liza…the Nikon 105 mm lens is such a great lens.
Hello Beth. Thanks and yes it is. I probably don’t use it enough – I seem go through phases with it 🙂
