One lazy Fall day, I happened to catch this extraordinary rainbow glistening in the evening sun's rays. Imagine that--such colorful beauty in a spiderweb! Since this is October, it seems somehow appropriate.
Um, a..., eh...Oh... I'm not a real fan of spiders but this rainbow web is winding its way around my heart. Nice capture of this early Halloween web. Blessings to you and yours. Love and Light, Nina P
I happened upon some webs last year on a bridge. They were like lungs. The wind would push and then relax and the webs would breathe. I held my breath while I watched.
When I see something unexpected, unusual, or beautiful, my focus involuntarily suddenly sharpens and intensifies. The sensation tickles! That's when I say something "fills my eyes." It is the greatest compliment I can give.

Welcome to my World
I have always loved taking pictures. I took my first and only photography class at West Linn High. The photo lab was located in the bowels of the school near the gym's locker rooms. There we learned to manage typical dark room techniques and procedures for developing film.
Things have radically changed since those days. Today's technology no longer requires pungent trays of chemicals and a dark room.
With the invention of the digital camera, I was set free to capture the amazing, unusual and the unexpected. My camera is always by my side.
I never know when, or where I will be able to capture some delicate beauty, or unexpected oddity.
Welcome to my world!
Statistically, the probability of any one of us being here is so small that you'd think the mere fact of existing would keep us all in a contented dazzlement of surprise.

I am interested in people, stories, art, drama, music, nature, and photography.
I love to photograph the forest, my garden, birds of all kinds, the river, my town, our historical home, the ocean and so much more. The stories one can find are endless.
The seasons of nature are fascinating to me. Every year, time and the seasons seem to vibrate with increasing intensity

Lovely web... opaque, awesome!
I would say that weather is very much cyclical. You can walk through weather history and see patterns. No worries.
Lovely,.... and also the rain glistening on the web shows us how intricate it is. Such a effort a spider makes to weave a web!
Hi Beth. I think you should name your spider Iris (the Greek goddess personified as a rainbow).
Um, a..., eh...Oh... I'm not a real fan of spiders but this rainbow web is winding its way around my heart. Nice capture of this early Halloween web. Blessings to you and yours. Love and Light, Nina P
Very nice capture.
Cool pic, loved it :)
Beautiful. Caught in an unrepeatable moment in time.
Cool shot. He missed out on something. He should have written on it "Spiderman was here!" :-) Nice shot!

Oh, that is beautiful.
