What wicked webs we weave Photo

Photographer’s Note

I was walking down to work and it was freeeezing, there were hundreds of cobwebs, all newly spun an pristine looking, but i didn't have my camera. The next day, i went down, it wasn't quite as cold, but the cobwebs that had been there the day before were mostly still there, just looking a little worse for wear! If i was a spider the frost would annoy me, cos now everyone can see your trap you spent ages building and it's no longer sticky! it's like wet sellotape...

Hi Luke,

great title & note. It's a shame you didn't get them first time around but there will be other days. You've cropped this one well with the big web to the right, good contrast between the foliage and the frosty web and I like your pov, slightly to one side. It could be a little sharper but still a fine capture, well spotted.

Regards

Stephen

Hello Luke,
Very well observed shot with good framing and pov. They look like the remains of some old fashioned string bags. Does lack some sharpness and could be bigger. TFS.

Exquisite photo. I have read that photographers will sprinkle white powder on dew encrusted webs to make them show up but this is stunning. Great grab and nicely composed.
