This spider web caught my eye on my early Sunday morning walk down to the lake.
The thick and heavy morning dew dangled precariously in droplets that would soon disappear on the delicate threads of this web that daintily makes its home between the fence post pickets.
It reminds me of the fragility of life and the crazy webs we so often weave.
I love that having my camera with me causes me to take special notice of things I might otherwise overlook and nudges me to ponder deep and reflective thoughts.
Photography is so much more than just taking pictures.ย It’s about observing life, sharing unique views (literally and figuratively), evoking emotions… It is art.
I dream of being an artist of life.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Thanks PJ! I was so excited to capture it. Hard to get the right timing or lighting – at least for an amateur like me ๐

What a beautiful web!!! There is an artist, Lois White, who paints on porcelain. On some of her work she hunts for spider webs, sprays a lacquer on it and then applies to porcelain, finishes the painting and than fires it…the spider web is on the work as if it were painted…real a beautiful piece of art!!!!
