Catch the Sun by kareenking

Catch the Sun

This morning I headed out for a country drive, anticipating a spectacular sunrise. To my surprise, clouds moved in and interfered with my plans. So, I turned back home, pulled in the drive, and captured a peek of the sun showing its face through the fog. I took a photo and caught a glimpse of a tiny spider web high in a tree above me.
Here's my attempt at forced perspective - the web enveloping the sun.

On another note, thanks to all who supported my Kansas Sunrise Favorites Collage, propelling me to the winning collage. Very exciting! I've just posted the newest challenge, for those interested: http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/22629/new-mfpiac-my-favorite-photos-in-a-collage-challenge

I love this web! Nice catch. Strangely enough, just above this in my "Home" feed of my friend's shots was a nice spiderweb posted by Sue Barnicoat. Is it International Spiderweb day?
