 spiderweb, puffing up & down like a sail as the wind puffs came by...
i caught a few in a row & if I click on them fore & aft w/the mouse, it "moves"; not a spider in sight :(

EDIT: sharpen, adjust color, resize

I (like Jeff) see a ghost here, floating ethereally along, gently touching but never feeling the grass, yearning to feel what its incorporeal existence will not allow it to feel. I really like the placement of the web within the frame, and the flow it gives the image.

Very pretty - the gossamer effect, the color contrast; for me though the framing seems too cramped for the billowy nature of the subject, I feel myself wanting to see more room around it, to also see the web in full.

Peaceful and flowing, with just enough of the web in focus to make it more interesting. Nicely done.

This is so beautiful...the diaphanous web, the light, the airy feeling...lovely.

What no description on what position you assumed to get this one????? You dissapoint me! LOL
Now seriously, I love the illusion of a parachute (OK maybe it's time for bed).
OK, maybe that wasn't too serious. But I got this vision of a parachute and the spider landing softly and then this camera lens showed up in his face.

I really like how this is just floating above the grass .. very nice and the perfect amount of softness.
