Went outside to find a bee to shoot for transportation(was going to be: pollen transportation.) lol. but instead when i was down riffling in some bushes trying to get a bee to fly out I found this guy. he kept making the web bounce. guess it's a scare tactic. it worked! but I got down and shot up to get the side with him on it. he kept moving the web and made it hard. but anyway heres the info.

had this underexposed two stops in camera to get it a little faster so I fixed that when processing the raw. then

Cool photo. I like it! However, I think the photo is a liberal interpretation of "from the ground up" challenge. Good Luck.

This is a really different perspective on a spider web. Great shot.

That is a classic web for the Argiope aurantia (garden spider). No one has really explained why they reinforce their webs with the zig zag lines.
