Silk and Granite
Blue Mountain Cemetery, Walla Walla, WA
Wispy filaments of a spider's web are backlit in the corners of a granite cross, making for a dramatic contrast in terms of permanence and contributing to a particular mood with this combination. A large aperture with its shallow depth of field has thrown the background out of focus, thereby providing a light and colorful but indistinguishable background for the cross.
