Day 75

The other one I liked today is here: http://www.pbase.com/image/31603051
(much prettier, but I can't post flowers every day -- can I?)

If anyone has tips on how to take pictures of spiderwebs, I'd love to hear them.
I'm not extremely happy with the result here, but then it wasn't exactly a lovely misty morning, either -- just a lot of dimness and shadows.
The delicate lines of the web got sort of lost in them. I shot a couple with flash, but that didn't help matters any.

Lovely shot. You asked for techniques...I've heard (but not tried) you can spray the web lightly with a bit of water to put nice water drops on it. Shouldn't bother the spider too much (he said, as though he knew). Regardless, this is a good picture!

I think you could give tips on taking photos of spiderwebs! Great shot.

I too would be interested in techniques. Neat spider! Seems to be hanging in the air.
