I have a particular interest in spiderwebs despite having a fear of spiders. Spiderwebs are difficult to photograph, and I’ve wasted a lot of time trying to get good shots of them.

Hiking along the C&O Canal near Sharpsburg I thought I saw a giant CD disc hanging in the trees.  Of course it wasn’t a CD; rather, the most perfectly formed spiderweb I’ve ever seen.

Just a few steps later was the largest spiderweb I’ve ever seen.

I was really lucky to have decent light for these shots.
