Catching Up

Outstanding pics of droplets on cobwebs has long been one of the great Pbase mysteries for me!
I'm ashamed to say I had never noticed dew droplets on cobwebs before Pbase.
Anything smaller than a cow is mere detail to me, and my brain doesn't function! LOL

But seeing Sheila's excellent shot taken in the Wiltshire fog, prompted me to take action.
So with this shot I am applying for membership of the Pbase 'Dew Drops on Cobwebs' Club
- but it's a long way to catch up with the club founders:- Neil, Sharon, Nicky and many others!!

Anyway, guys, thanks for the enlightenment and the inspiration!

From my Webs and Droplets gallery.

Fantastic image! I like the 3D feel. Nice job getting an S-curve to lead the eye into the frame

No matter how hard I try I can never seem to get a good droplet shot. I notice them but I am abyssmal at capturing the detail. This one is really excellent. Like a work of art

I can't ever find dew on cobwebs either and I guess I need to get busy to find a few. I do love the shots. This is no exception. Great eye and work!

Love this image John! I have yet to capture a cobweb digitally, though I accidentally caught a lovely one in my SLR film days.And now I can't find the picture.So back to the learning curve...
