Secret Web Revealed

Uploaded: November 12, 2007

Description

Yesterday after a light rain, I was out walking in the yard. In the unmown grass I spotted a spider web covered with rain drops. Even it's secret web tunnel was revealed as the droplets swirled down the funnel-like opening. I used a 5 second shutter exposure, with a warm polorizer. I always feel enchanted and happy when I stumble upon unexpected things.

Oh, and I just KNOW that darned spider is right there in that tunnel waiting to run out and bite EVERYTHING! (Sreeeeeeam!) Maybe the waer would make him slip and slide and not STICK and ATTACK???

I am horrified of spiders yet can't seem to pass one up in galleries that I visit.

You gallery is looking spectacular these days Songbird! After the Easter Feast around here at our house I'll have to get back on and peek through it longer.

I have some new ones, too, when you get time! xo-Laura HAPPY EASTER TO YOU! #5684566
