This dew laden spider web resembles strings of pearls!!

Wow, impressive, I would clean the clipped ones around the edges. I think it has a color cast, but not sure it would look better corrected :)

Hi John
It does have a slight colour cast but these pearls often pick up all the surrounding colour. I also noticed it's upside down?

You have a keen eye Tony and quite right, the web was upside-down!! Now corrected :)

The cold colour cast results from the image being photographed before sunrise - I could warm it up but this then wouldn't convey the cool, crisp morning.

Hey John, very nice image, I like the sharpness through out. Great color.

Very nice John, the comp and the crop are perfect.

I think a simple S curve application would make the image even better.

Thanks for all the comments - and yes Robert the extra contrast works better (Curves, 10 point adjustment)
