August Webs Photos

By the time I managed to get to my Easthaven Webs this month it was later in the day on Sunday, but the sun was at my back so I took my camera, success! I've added photos in the order they appear in the Webs records with a brief message below some of them.  

The videos below are original HD compressed to SD as they were taken at distance and digital zoom was used, I'll experiment with this, the alternative was viewing at 50% which I did, but others may not. See how it goes, close ups in good light will continue in HD.
