Last summer's gas shortage pushed me to explore the fields near my home. Early morning dew and low light make for some interesting effects. The dark areas were boosted darker a little. Taken 09-04-05. Canon 300D,Sigma 70 -300mm,ISO setting 100,exposure not recorded,Moose's warming circ. polarizer.

Leann...I really like the pattern on the spider and the way the web repeats it. Well done!

Macro: finding a world in one's backyard.

And it looks like you succeeded in capturing something delightful from your world Leann.

Fascinating perspective. It reminds me of the rings of Saturn. I think the DOF is great: the infocus threads of the web just draw your eye to the spider. Congrats on your EP.
