a sign meant for caution, becomes a graffiti surface, a surface for a spider to create its web for catching food
We just spent a lazy Sunday around the house. I start my new job tomorrow, hooray!
This looks about 100 x better large, or on black

I found this cool spider web in the garden and sprayed it down with a mist of water. I love all the droplets caught in the web. Webs are definitely delicate.
Community technology is great. It is incredibly refreshing to be reminded on a daily basis that, as a developer and technologist, I don't know crap about how everyday people view and use technology.
Two weeks ago I was in Washington, DC for the CTCnet Conference. While there I helped John Lorance of CompuMentor give a presentation on how Community Technology Centers and nonprofit orgaizations can use Web 2.0 services and tools like Flickr, del.icio.us,, wikis, mapping, et cetera to improve their programs and better fulfill their missions.
At the end we opened the floor to questions and comments. An attendee stood up and said that he had always been worried that with computers and machines growing ever smarter and more powerful, one day they would overthrow mankind. But after seeing these new Web 2.0 tools, he is relieved that humans will always stay one step ahead of the machines. Hallelujah.
I made this drawing using Inkscape, an awesome open source illustration program.
I have to be honest I didn't spot the caterpillar when I was looking for a web today, so that was a bonus when I clicked and zoomed! HWW
My old 35mm film archive.
The spider web with dew drops is the favorite subject for most hobbyists.
This was taken many years ago when I bought my first macro lens i.e. the Tamron 90mm.
I could not get close to the web because it was hanged up above at the door frame of a house.
The water drops are not big enough in the picture.
Anyways this is my early attempt with macro shooting.
If you love macro pictures like me, please give some comments on my other macro shots
This web appeared more glorious in the morning after catching water. Its designer never intended for it to be so.
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.

"Much like a subtle spider, which doth sit
In middle of her web, which spreadeth wide:
If aught do touch the utmost thread of it,
She feels it instantly on every side."
~ Sir John Davies,
The Immortality of the Soul
(sec. XVIII, Feeling)
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.

A spider built his web on the rails leading up to my porch.
