With considerable difficulty, I was able to get low enough to have some Vermont fall leaf colours behind this web that was at ground-level. 
Sure could have used the D850's tilt-screen back then!
A real oldie -  8 yrs ago this week. ..
Has been posted previously, so some may remember it. One of my favorites.

I think it is great! Very nice love the colors. Hard to believe that beautiful web was created by a spider. The center is great, pulls you right it to see how it all was born.

It's always a pleasure to see this one again, Sandy.  The background colors are great and it's a near perfect web with a fine collection of dew drops.  Having the entire web in focus adds even further to the beauty.

Hi Sandy,

BG is wonderful and the center of the dew covered web is placed in the right spot for this composition.  Well done................Jim
