A Black Drongo Takes Off

Pearls on a Spider Web
February 19, 2010
I normally do not get much time to shoot when I go on TravelWise trails. But I do steal a few minutes here and there to get some pictures, and also spend some time helping and answering questions of photography enthusiasts who come on the tour. It was the same story last weekend too when I took a small group to the Hoysala Country. Sunday morning was one such moment when someone spotted this spider web decorated with dew drops.
And here is a close crop of the same picture.
