..anyone know how to get a really great shot of a spider's web?

There are two creepy crawlies on my back porch that have been weaving the most exquisite webs every morning for the last couple of weeks. They are perfect, and 3-dimensional. I've been going out there when I'm up very early with the wee one to see if I can catch them with dew on them, but no such luck so far.

I've never photographed any myself but here are some interesting photos which might give you some ideas:

I'm the last one you would find trying to pi$$ off a spider, but if someone else is doing it, I'd suggest using a plant mister if you want the water droplets look. Time it so you do it when the light is right, shoot the pic, then run like he((
