YOU NEVER KNOW WHERE YOU'LL FIND AN INTERESTING PHOTO. 

Keep your camera handy.

Driving out my driveway Monday, something caught my eye and I had to stop, grab my camera and shoot the photo below. 

I have a well right next to the driveway.  It was the only place on my lot that the health department would approve digging.  So, there's that well head right by the driveway.  I "decorated" it with some bamboo poles. 

It appears that a spider has taken up residency there.

Maureen.  I just noticed this one on the way out a few days ago.  I don't even know if it's still there, but I captured it for posterity.

Fran.  My pleasure.

Jeff.  Indeed.  It's an architectural masterpiece.

Claude.  HA!  That fellow must get around.

Oh Lenn, I tried all last summer to get a photo of a spider web at my cottage. I could NEVER get it right. This is great.

What? No Wordless Wednesday ?

LOL

Missy.  I couldn't have found this priceless web if I'd search for ages.  Well, perhaps across the road in the wooded area.  I just happened by it while driving out. 

I spied it out of the corner of my car, stopped and got some shots.  It turned out better than I expected. 

I don't do wordlesses.  I have to feed Google.

Lenn, the spider just has good taste on where to live, and to top it off it has a great view of your flowers :)

Lenn- I should have taken a photo of a gorgeous spider web my son found a couple of weeks back. Maybe we will go see if it is still there tomorrow.

Did you know that when a hurricane is coming the spiders actually go out to their webs and take them down? I was so amazed to learn that in my son's k-3 homeschool science class he goes to. Miss Cherry told the students that this is one of the ways we can know that a hurricane is coming. The ants also go into the ground and you will not see any ants crawling around Florida when a hurricane is coming. Oh, just recalled, it is that time of year to start blogging about preparedness.

Katerina.  Interesting.  Perhaps spiders can sense a falling barometer.  When it's all over for the homo sapiens, I guess the only ones left will be the spiders and ants.

Kristal.  Thanks.  I thought it quite lovely.  Living lace, indeed.

Terry.  Yes indeed and I see it all around me every day.

Kay.  I feel undressed without my camera.  I've been known to turn around and go back home to fetch it if I'm not more than a half mile or so out.

Loorena.  Thanks.  It's amazing what we come across when just doing our job.

Paul.  Aren't they though?  I marvel at the precision of their handiwork.

We can learn a lot from the spiders and the ants...and if that's who is left standing when it's all over, that's not a bad thing. They will be good guardians of the earth.

Great photo...I love spider webs and especially those really big spiders...they are just too cool.

That is great picture of a spider web.  My daughter is OK with them outside but inside that's a different story.

Susan.  It is sheer beauty.  I never cease to marvel at them.

Mark.  Thanks.  I tend to agree with your daughter.

Lenn,

I sometimes think that the best photo subjects are when I do not have my camera with me (LOL)

Jon.  HA!  Something we have all learned when we get out without our camera and see a spectacular scene.

hEy gf!

Can't believe someone as busy as you...with such [AR] stature...and a life CONSUMED by RE...would even take the time to admire the beauty and intracacies of a spider web! You go girlfriend! You're 'still the best...better than all the rest'!  Kinda' like Tina Turner...  :)

Renee.  Thanks.  Nice to hear from you.  Being old and crotchity doesn't keep me from admiring something as amazing as a spider web. 

Goodness, it takes only a minute to stop and observe a thing of beauty.
