Enchanted web

After a rain shower the raindrops on this spider web gave it an enchanted look. The web was formed on top of a sedum plant. Not sure what this spider is, just your normal garden variety spider.

Canon Rebel T1i. 86mm at F/5 for 1/200 sec. ISO 100.

This is stunning. The reflection in each raindrop are gorgeous. The whole image seems a bit soft - but the composition and usual subject matter are nothing short of incredible! Well seen, Carolyn!

Beautiful detail. The drops are so sharp they sparkle. It would be lovely without the spider but having him on board makes this that much better.
