Sandy, this is a great find and captured very well. Those dew drops are just icing on the cake. The black BG makes the seed and the web with the droplets stand out nicely. Well done.

Excellent, Sandy. Your composition is very cool with the illusion created by the converging web segments of great depth. Did you do a mostly B&W conversion on this? It has that look, but you didn’t mention it.

Thanks, guys- no BW conversion- just a gray day and very dark fence BG

Sandy: I love milkweed seeds and this one is in great shape. The little touch of color works really well for me. Nice find and a fine capture. >=))>
