Description
A foggy autumn morning revealed the most beautiful, delicate spider webs that decorated the vegetation in a wildlife sanctuary. There were dozens and dozens of these small webs that became invisible again once the fog lifted and the sun dried the strands. The webs were so diaphanous and light that the slightest wind current made them undulate and sparkle. It was most enchanting! If you look closely you can see the suspended particles of fog between the strands.

Very nice Doris. I just love early autumn mornings with dew- all of the previously subtle spider webs stick out like sore thumbs! :)

Doris Potter replied:
You have described it perfectly - "shimmering water droplets". We would have had fun together. I was running from web to web!
