Busy people often times rush through life without taking time to see the little things in life. A quote by Throeau is on my desktop to remind me every day, "It is not what you look at that matters, but what you see". And this is what I saw one morning. I am reposting it here, as originially I put it on Rocket Moms, a group of Women Writers in their Photography Group.
Yesterday I got to San Diego about 9 am and it was foggy out. My daughter told me to look at something out the window, and here was this huge beautiful spider web near the top of her Avocado Trees with the morning dew caught on the web. Oh, I grabbed my camera and ran out the door with their words of "you'll never get it" echoing in the background. This was extremely difficult to capture on a fly by "I want it now" picture, but as you see I got it. Not in it's full glory as I saw it out the window, but enough to share it with anyone that appreciated the small things in life. The things we often don't see :) Look very close and you can see the morning dew drops in the center of the web. The Avocados will give you an idea of how large this web is.....imagine the time it took one itsy bitsy spider to weave this.

You really captured the beauty in this photo and I am like you, I have never been able to post a wordless post! ;-)
