A cobweb can be transformed with a small amount of dew. This shot was taken in the early morning. There wasn’t much light. I decided to use a portable flash as the key light. This allowed me to completely underexpose the background and turn it almost black.
It also allowed for a faster shutter speed to help freeze the action. Although it was a calm morning the web was moving enough to ruin a photo using only the ambient light. I wish a spider had appeared. That would have made this shot even more interesting.
