If you're an insect, please be careful out there. Lots of spider webs popping up all over!

This tiny web is about 10cm long.

First of the Summer Orb Weavers

Still learning the finer points of web weaving...

sajnos 1-2 képet tudtam csak ellőni, ez után a kép után fél perccel lemerültem :(. na igen, és a makró lencsém kicsit torzít a széleknél ezért van elszíneződés

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.

Right at eye-level across the trail... yikes! If I hadn't been paying attention I would have had a face full of spider webs.

I'd put my money on the spider .....

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.

this is worth taking bigger

wet spider web....

First autumn fog and spider’s web.

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

Playing with some spider webs this morning.......can see there is alot to learn mastering the clarity of this type of Macro....specially when the slightest breeze plays with your patience.

Shooting against the sun to get the web to stand out. I was fortunate that there wasn't much wind.

My appreciation and thanks to all of you for your comments, awards and faves.

This web was wet with the morning dew and low down in the grass enabling me to carefully place the tripod legs around it and get in very close for this abstract shot.
