Here is a more 'chaotic rendition' of the water droplets on a tangle of spider web threads set against a dead flower head ... Most of the flower heads in the meadow had a mass of spider thread without rather than the 'traditional' ringed web ...

Love the colors and bokeh in your dew shots, but I prefer the former one. IMO the dark radiating lines in this one detract from the delicate dew drops and are too heavy. That said, the dark lines are definitely in the right place in the image!

I like the comp. here, Mark, with the sharp drops seeming to hand from the overhead structure. You've also got some fine details in the individual drops.

Nice play of lights, colors and shapes here Mark. Good balance overall, with lots of interesting details.
