Image Description

Few creatures can match spiders for structural design. A fresh web like this covered in dewdrops is an inspiration.

I’d like to sharpen it, but only have the JPEG to hand.

Removed visible BG with the Black and White sliders in ACR. I forget the original processing (2020).

Fantastic!!! Wonderful detail and excellent job of keeping the web in the focal plane. I love the angle of the camera / subject, with the 3 corners at an angle lending some visual punch. The geometry of the web is wonderful, with such an elegant spiral and the supporting threads are an engineering marvel and so visually pleasing!

Way to Cool. Great detail and perfect in B&W.

Nice job, Mike. It’s so difficult to get exactly the right angle on webs like this.

Mike: Crazy good and perfect for the challenge. Knowing the degree of difficulty to get a shot this crisp of a web makes it even more impressive. Superbly crafted image.>=))>

Mike, getting a complete web sharp is a huge challenge, that you’ve handled well. The mix of triangle and spiral look great. Well done.
