18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The geometry of nature
In the autumn morning hours, when the air trembles with coolness and the first ray of the belated sun falls on the meadow herbs, an unforgettable picture opens before us. Around as if by magic, a skillfully woven lace appears. Translucent threads are formed into amazing ornaments and shapes, creating unimaginable geometric interiors of nature. Thousands of spider webs fill the meadow valley, merging into a single mosaic. And in the very center of the pattern you can notice a small shadow - it is the source of this lace weaving, a crab spider.
