Ran back to my room to grab my camera when I came across this one. I've been trying to capture a spider web since a long time.
Best viewed in full size.
Little Garden Spider has built a web by my patio doors. The light was fantastic, the exposure was hell......
This is a spider web with the sun shining on it. Some of the webs make a beautiful rainbow pattern, which is only just visible in this photo.

Oh no, I see,
A spider web is tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I'd said.
Oh no, what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
So I turn to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done.

Sunlight diffracted through a tiny spider web. The parts of the picture that are out of focus magnify the amazing colors revealed through diffraction.
An impressively large species of salamander, possibly in the genus Bolitoglossa, found in the Chiriqui Highlands of Panama.
Prior to reaching the highlands we had been exploring the lowland rain forests and cloud forests of central Panama and I was overwhelmed with all the new and exciting amphibians I was encountering. However and not surprisingly, that diversity and density dropped off sharply as we reached the higher elevations of Cerro Punta and Volcan Baru (6500ft+) in the Chiriqui Highlands.
I did hear a single species of tree frog calling around our lodging at night but the calls were so sporadic and high in the canopy I could never locate the species. I didn't expect to find any salamanders on this trip so while out searching for frogs I was shocked to see a very large black salamander crawling up the side of a small hillock. Further searching revealed two more of the same species moving slowly along in the cool (50F) drizzly weather. The largest of them was found clinging onto a barbwire fence and was a good 5+ inches in length. This species ended up being the only amphibian we found in the Chiriqui Highlands.

If anyone can help me ID this animal down to the species I'd really appreciate it!
A restoration of a damaged clip, but showing an interesting perspective on the back (presumably web making) end of the Tholian ship model from The Tholian Web. The ship sits on a stand in the studio. Another shot of the ship, from the side, can be seen here:

where the web making nozzle (if that is what it was intended to be) is just barely visible in side profile.
This relatively simple model was repurposed later in the third season as the Aurora in the episode " The Way to Eden " and can be seen as that ship here:

I'm not kidding, there are webs everywhere...I almost think I need to wear armor to go out in the garden...to protect myself from those biting brats.
A cook at the Weber Grill restaurant in Schaumburg, Illinois loads charcoal into a chimney device in preparation for starting up another grill in anticipation of the dinner rush. The grill next to him was burning pretty hot.
Not sure which type of spider this is - any help welcome. Found in our summer house waiting for its dinner!!
This is a wasp tied up in a spider's web. I think that the wasp was still alive here, but I'm not sure. Its mouth parts seemed to move now and then as if it was trying to chew its way out.
The spider was a house spider - quite a lot bigger than the wasp. I had no idea that house spiders fed on wasps, but they obviously do.
I didn't see these wasps (there were two in the web) land in the web. I had been watching the spider for a while and then went away for 20 minutes or so. When I came back there were the wasps all cocooned like this. I wonder if the spider had stored them somewhere and then brought them back to the web where it could handle them and feed on them.
It makes a change for me to feel sadness and sympathy for wasps. A few years ago I watched wasps attacking and then decapitating bees. I felt sorry for the bees then, and no sympathy for wasps. But wasps meet harsh ends too. All part of nature's cycle.
