Description
Spiderweb with raindrop beats, the macro image displays an enchanting glimmer on the drops. The raindrops resemble metallic silver pearls. They are lined up like beads on a string. I wonder how many jewelry makers have been inspired by seeing a wet spiderweb.? Spider silk responds to water through softening and swelling. Major ampullate silk, the main structural element of most prey capture webs, also shrinks dramatically if unrestrained or develops high tension if restrained, a phenomenon called 'super contraction'.The durable web persists even as the drops seem to pull it down.A spider web, spiderweb, spider's web, or cobweb is a device created by a spider out of proteinaceous spider silk extruded from its spinnerets, generally meant to catch its prey.
