Spider Web

Spider Web

Uploaded: January 08, 2009

Description

Taken on a real early foggy morning at Seminole,Park in Seminole Florida. There were thousands of them on each side of the trail where I walk. You couldn't see very far down. It was so neat to see so many in one place. The designs in them were amazing. To think that a spider did these is so neat. I was wondering where all of those spiders could be. Putting in the category of Elements of design.

Gorgeous capture, Kay! They really are so magical! I have often wondered, also -- where are the busy little spiders?? Sometimes, you see them, oftentimes you don't. To me, the only scary kind of spider is the Brown Recluse: that's because they're secretive and sneaky, and their bite is toxic (unlike most). The rest... I have found that if you don't bother THEM, they won't bother YOU! And they do eat other pesky, bugs. Anyway, their webs are things of beauty, and you've caught this one so perfectly! #7001498

Kay- Now that is one impressive spider web. They are so unique and fasinating, beautiful even. Of course unless you walk into one and get a face full. I am amazed at the stunning details and clarity you captured of this web. From the size of the stands, he must be one big mean boy.
Incredible work. #7003938
