Project – Photographing Spider Webs

blog 029

Spider webs photograph well in the subtle light of morning sunshine.  A good way to highlight the silken strands even more is to douse the surface of the web with a fine spray of water. A cleaned out hairspray bottle works great. Larger spray bottles will have droplets that are too large, and their size and the force with which they are propelled will tear the web.
