Who can catch to the water?

Today it dawned a fresh morning in Tabasco, last night there was some rain, me to try to catch drops of water in the trees and I found these drops in interesting ways caught by the silk of a spider (spider cloth)

About the silk of the spiders:

The spiders use the silk it is the elaboration of complex traps to capture their preys. Knitted by instinct, these cloths adopt varied and sometimes very specialized forms.

The silk of the spiders is a fibrous protein segregated in form of fluid that, when extending, it forms a much more resistant polymer that the steel, and it multiplies its resistance to the break, grace to its elasticity. An only spider can produce several silk types. Although there are other spineless ones able to produce it, the spiders are those that make a more varied use of her. For example, they produce haulage threads that they help them to be guided and to be held in the event of fall. The small spiders, and especially the youths, knit a thread ‘parachute ' that allows them to be allowed to take for the wind, in occasions up to hundred of kilometers of distance. The males use the silk to transfer the sperm to the organ copulador, and the females make buds with her.

*** The silk is also good to make nests and other cameras, as well as to have galleries. The good known use —y the most astonishing—of the silk on the part of many species is the elaboration of the traps for insects known as spider cloths. Once caught the prey in one of these cloths, the spider can wrap it with more silk.

Effects: white and black, adjust of shine and contrast, Unsharp Mask, effect of light, color variation in blue and cian.
