  • It was a gray and overcast day when I walked through the park on Saturday morning, disappointed in the lack of light.  But the sun broke through for a few minutes and I liked the way it lit these small budding leaves from behind.  It wasn't until I got home that I saw those little wispy webs.  It was a pretty good day after all.<br />
