Morning jewels
Found several webs Sunday morning it was foggy but there was a pretty good breeze blowing. This is the best of the bunch.I liked how the color came through. 172mm 1/250 4.5 ISO 400

Beautiful, Kendall. I really like how you've framed the red leaf in the center of the web.

I agree that the placement of the red leaf was well conceived, my eye went there immediately. The web may "pop" a bit more with a bit of a curves adjustment to ramp up the highlights a bit. Well done!

Very nice composition, Kendall. I agree with Joel....a slight adjustment with either Curves or Selective Color would make it pop. :smile:

I will try the suggestions and see what I can do. I usually don't spend much time working with images other than some cropping and sharpening. I will see if I can do better about that, thanks.

Really nice capture. My editing suggestion would be a simple Curves s-curve, which will produce a nice contrast boost and really make the web burst forth.
