RE: Weekend Freewrite- 9-28-2019- Single Prompt Optiotn: spider web
I've tried to photograph spider webs with nothing like the results you got!
My mom crochets doilies, but the spiders present some serious competition. Like birds, bugs, and fish that are streamlined and aerodynamic without having to try, the spider is programmed to spin, and its silk is stronger than most man-made materials. Science borrows from the non-human works of nature.
#Spiders are so much better than flies, chiggers, ticks, gnats, and mosquitoes. Why arachnophobia instead of ALL bugs...why the spider...but I've always liked spiders and snakes while hating flies and mosquitoes. So it goes.
It sure isn't easy to get photos of a spider web. It took many, many tries. Nature never ceases to amaze me.
Most people with arachnophobia are afraid of being bitten by a spider. That is what I read. Do you just hate flies and mosquitoes or do you fear them? Who knows what makes people tick.
Your mom crochets doilies? My grandmother made some beauties.
