My second common garden spider of the year, busily constructing a web at the edge of a garden in Abergavenny this afternoon.
A good morning for taken spiders wed shots played around with WB. and RAW + jpeg all in manual mode and focus.Sony a6000 50mm f1.8 really like what this wee lens can do.
Morning fog, still clearing, left tiny droplets of water on the strands of this cobweb, which was made even more interesting by the presence of the web's colorful inhabitant. "We" in this case refers to members of the Potomac Highlands Photography Workshop (Randall Sanger Photography), and the place is the Blackwater River Walk at Canaan Valley Resort State Park; one of the workshop members said what kind of spider this is, but I've forgotten. Besides macro shots such as this, the walk through a wooded area and along the river also presented beautiful landscape-photo opportunities. For a time after the fog lifted we had sunshine and a beautiful sky, but clouds thickened rapidly and overcast conditions were with us by noon. With a lot of clouds, fog, and rain, the weather wasn't quite what we had hoped for, the workshop (offered by Randall Sanger Photography, September 11-14) was a good experience with many good photo opportunities.

A bit misty this morning, so all the spider webs were glistening with dew.
These look so pretty when they're like this, but I imagine the spiders themselves are rolling their eyes when they see how visible their traps have become.
