Morning Dew Webs
I spotted these spider webs on the shore of Lake Chuzenji in Nikko National Park in Japan when we visited a couple of weeks ago. The lake was shrouded in mist and the scene was very spooky as there were boats and pedalos pulled up on the beach after the summer season.
The shot at the top of the page was shot on the Fujifilm X100T on the macro setting, which allowed me to shoot a little closer than normal to focus on the centre of the web. The lens was set at F2 to give me a shallow depth of field.
The second shot below is of a web attached to a boat winch was taken on the Fujifilm X-T2 which was fitted with the XF50-140mm f2.8 zoom lens and set at the 140mm end of the zoom range.
Both images were shot in colour and converted to mono in NIK Silver EFEX Pro2 software in post production.
