Description
When you casually look at this image in a smaller size, it appears to be one of fluffy clouds and deep blue sky. But open it to larger size, and there you find a big, dew covered spiderweb, shown against that pleasant sky. And the web was very big. I nearly ran right into it while on a walk through a Florida conservation area. I was fascinated by the look of it against the blue and white. I did duck under it to continue on my walk, after photographing it from many angles, so as not to hurt such beautiful symmetry. It was only later that it occurred to me that the very large web might well have been produced by a very large spider, one I did not see. Hmmmm. While I'm not afraid of spiders, I really don't like to run right into them unexpectedly.
