I've got to point out I jumped at the opportunity of getting a shot on white - good job I'd not long painted the door eh?
The water spray works a treat on empty webs but I think I'd've felt a bit tight spraying the poor thing while it was preoccupied - and it might have sent it scurrying for cover instead of posing with its 'friend'...

Bruce - well spotted on the exif. 'Not a lot of people know that' (Michael Cain voice) LOL LOL It certainly helps with advice if one can see why things are as they are.
