Drove around aimlessly this cloudy morning before finally deciding to return "the old standby" at which point Mother Nature decided to offer me a little help... my work doesn't do her's justice
A plus for have a rainy foggy trip was i was able to capture this spider web looking like glass beads

A little web I caught after its occupant had vacated.
I had a fantastic day today - and the weather was absolutely perfect!
Spider web at the Sensory Patios of Tucson Botanical Gardens, August 14 2014.
I was hampered by a breeze that was enough to fold up the bottom of the web. The image was processed to darken the background.

It rained pretty had and steady most of the morning. Mrs. Spider's web got damaged so she was busy repairing it when I went outside to photograph her. She was well aware I was there, and watched me, but didn't seem particularly concerned. I think she's used to seeing me looking at her. She has a very small head compared to her legs and body.
We're having a wet Sunday, so I hadn't expected to take any photos today. However, Ruth Ann noticed a large spider web outside a second-floor bedroom window with raindrops on it. To avoid destroying the web, I left the storm window in place and shot this through that window. I used the 100mm macro lens first, then switched to the 24-70; both yielded some nice images, but this -- with the macro lens -- is my favorite.
The tensile strength of spider silk is greater than the same weight of steel and has much greater elasticity. Its microstructure is under investigation for potential applications in industry, including bullet-proof vests and artificial tendons. (WIKIPEDIA)
Every morning, right after the sun comes up, everything is glistening with the morning dew.
It doesn't take long before the dew is dissipated, so I head out in my smiley face flannel pajamas before my morning coffee to get some shots.
The neighbors are used to it. . .
Spider webs have existed for at least 100 million years. Insects can get trapped in spider webs, providing nutrition to the spider; however, not all spiders build webs to catch prey, and some do not build webs at all. "Spider web" is typically used to refer to a web that is apparently still in use (i.e. clean), whereas "cobweb" refers to abandoned (i.e. dusty) webs.
When spiders moved from the water to the land in the Early Devonian period, they started making silk to protect their bodies and their eggs.Spiders gradually started using silk for hunting purposes, first as guide lines and signal lines, then as ground or bush webs, and eventually as the aerial webs that are familiar today.
Spiders produce silk from their spinneret glands located at the tip of their abdomen. Each gland produces a thread for a special purpose – for example a trailed safety line, sticky silk for trapping prey or fine silk for wrapping it. Spiders use different gland types to produce different silks, and some spiders are capable of producing up to 8 different silks during their lifetime.
