  Douglas,
Before I read your description, I thought to myself he must have shot this in zero gravity because the water droplets are facing up.

Beautifully executed and I also like the fact that you flipped the image to make it that more interesting. Your extremely shallow DOF really sets the web off from the background.

Dave

  Hi Doug--Came by your gallery after seeing your POTD. Congratulations! It's terrific--very creative idea to flip it. I also love "Blue Chicory." Thanks for putting all your shooting data on your images; it helps beginners like me. :D I have this same lens, and I'm still learning how to make the most of it.
