I have many dreams, mostly ones one can hardly convey in spoken language. IÂ want nature and peace around me, yet IÂ do not want to relinquish digital photography. IÂ have a Nikon D200 with a very basic lens. I had a Canon 30D too, but what a disappointment. BIO I am 55, an IT consultant and tried my hand at diamond digging, computer programming, being a network & computer technician, web designer, amateur photographer, etc. I am a man of the bush and appreciate simple things. IÂ do photography assignments from time to time. I am privileged to live where IÂ do, (map), a rural area in South Africa where I can hear the lions roar just 12 miles (20km) from where I live. I love this site and the artists uploading their work and I don't think any other site offers this varied depth in artistic skills. Piet

An appropriate title for this beautiful picture. The spider web makes this extra special.

Gorgeous murky atmospheric mood in that lovely capture, my friend. It appears the foliage is being swallowed up by the approach of dusk. Looks downright spooky. And, that is one huge spider in the middle of the river!

THERE`S A SPIDER THERE!!! How cool is this composition!!! Gorgeous colors in the sky as well. And the pasted sun would have been soooooooo awesome, if you could delete the lower part of it that should be behind those mountains. It is added isnt it? Or im making a complete fool out of myself, LOL. Wouldnt be the first time though. #:o/ Have a wonderful day Piet! #:o)

Superb capture - the mist and dark shadows draw the viewer in to taker a look at what could be lurking there only to see the spider closer than what I imagined . Outstanding image indeed.
