There is a long boardwalk from the pitcher plant bog to the river. It winds through a shady wetland of ferns, wildflowers, and grasses. The light there is filtered through tall pines and cypress trees. Please try DLs.

Heliopsis or Coreopsis?

Thank you so much, Angela. Effects used on first and second. First one has a texture applied. Second one I used Topaz Glow to enhance the light on the leaf. I'd love to see what kind of spider makes a web like that one. They're all over the place there.

Beautiful shots, Donna. The lighting on them is wonderful. Just positively glowing in the second (do we or do we not love our Glow, lol).

Interesting spider home. Maybe their version of Habitat for Humanity, arachnid style. They just build 'em, don't ever live in them themselves.

Excellent work on all three!

Dixiegirl Loc: Alabama gulf coast

Oh yes, we definitely love our Glow. :-D Thanks so much, Randy. I think you might be right about the web. Habitat sounds like a reasonable explanation. lol
