Drop in!

Rain-soaked grass spider or wolf spider funnel web tunnel, on the lawn of Tunxis Community College in Farmington, CT. A closer view of the full web.

The silk is so fine that it's invisible and it looks like the droplets are levitating. Any prey will probably not see it in good weather, and the spider will jump out and grab it as soon as the web is disturbed. The silk also seems to create a screen effect that sharpens the edges in the photo and intensifies the contrasts.
