Shortly after I got up this morning I glanced outside, and noticed a huge spiderweb covered in dew, so I grabbed my camera and headed outside in my jammies! It was beautiful, so I put my macro lens and extension tube on and started shooting. I was frustrated because it was too high up to use my tripod, so it was really hard to get a sharp image. This is one of the best I got.
Before I headed back inside, I noticed that the dried rose head that the web was attached to was covered in a fine later of frost. We don't get a lot of frost where I live in California, so I tried to get a few pictures of that too. I had the same problems getting a sharp image, and was slightly less successful that I was with the web. I was able to make a few barely acceptable images in Photoshop later though.
I guess the moral of the day is, get up earlier more often, and seek out photo opportunities within tripod reach!
