Exerpt from "The Spider and the Fly"...

Will you walk into my parlour?" said the Spider to the Fly,
'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy;
The way into my parlour is up a winding stair,
And I've a many curious things to shew when you are there."
Oh no, no," said the little Fly, "to ask me is in vain,
For who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again." ...............

As I had mentioned earlier this week, My son Zach and I went on a photographic trek last weekend. Today, tomorrow and Sunday I am posting images that Zach took. I was impressed with his "eye". His attention to detail is quite different from me...I tend to look more at the big picture...he sees the smaller pieces of life. I like the contrast to my style so for a change of pace this will be an all Zach weekend...Enjoy.

It was appropriate that I stumbled onto this moonlit web during the fullest phase of the moon. Lit by natural light, this spiders home was beckoning any visitor that might land on the superhighway and succumb to the trap. The reflective web stood out in the muted blues of the full moon like a lighthouse. Only this shelter in a storm had other motives. Uninvited visitors stop by for a brief visit and stay for the duration!
