In or yard, we have the hugest spider web I have ever seen – by far. Now perhaps I have not spent enough time in the wilds of the wold, but this web starts AT THE PHONE LINE up some… 15 feet at least up. It runs across the stairs up to the outside – this stairway is likely 3-4 feet across. The ‘core’ of the web must be around 3-4 feet across, and the extensions run way up to the phone lines. Anyhow – here is a semi-good shot of the spider web.

It made for an interesting camera exercise. It is really the 1st time I was able to USE the manual focus WELL to achieve a purpose. I was able to lower the F down a bit to get the background blurred out a bit. I was able to use a prime lens (although I DID get some good shots with my Sigma zoom) and creep up to see it out a window. Cameras are cool – but I am SUCH an amateur, trying to use my prosumer Canon XTi. I also noticed that the image stabilizer for my Sigma zoom lens has been OFF… Lessons…
