September 29 – Photographers will understand…
Got up early Sunday morning as I wanted to go outside as soon as the sun was high enough to shine on the tall asparagus patch. Why? Because late the previous afternoon Dale had found there a new spider in a beautiful web. No matter how hard I tried, shifting position many times, I just could not get that spider in focus or in a good light. I knew Dale was disappointed because he was sure that particular spider had a different pattern on its back, one he hadn’t seen before.
I finally gave up, but thought of it first thing Sunday morning. It was pretty well perfect conditions this time, so now we have another spider photo to enjoy. I also enjoyed walking around at the beginning of the day with its quietness, no wind, and just plain enjoyable weather. Even the flag on the front lawn made no movement at all. – CHRIS
