Most of the day went by with me planning our family's vacation online.... I was beginning to think I'd have to submit a picture of my desk with all my notes, printouts and confirmation numbers, and in fact I did take a few pictures of that as a last resort (very last....). Then I went out to pick some tomatoes and saw this great spider web. It was a large web, probably close to 12" in diameter, backlit as the sun was going down to show the wonderful structure, but it kept moving in the breeze, making it very difficult to get a sharply focused shot. The colors are original, but I boosted saturation, vibrance and contrast, removed noise, and added a slight black gradient to try to remove some of the glare/flare on the left side of the picture from the sun hitting my lens. I loved the engineering feat of the spider, and decided to go with the picture for today's offering, even though it was not as sharp as I'd like it to be.
