Moments #17: A Spider Does What It Can


On a sunny day last November, I stepped outside and spotted something in the upper corner of the garage door.

One spider was working hard to spin a web.

You’ll have to forgive the quality of some of the images.  The spider was too busy to stop and pose while I took its picture.

I went on a walk and when I came back an hour later, both the spider and its web were gone.  It was a windy day so I imagine the web only lasted a few minutes before it was blown away.  I’m glad the wind took care of it for me but I hope the spider knows that I was impressed with its hard work.

Moments #16: Walking In The Fog


I woke up and saw that a thick fog had descended over the neighborhood.  I know better than to let a good mist go to waste so I grabbed my camera and I went for a walk.
