Spider's web

Along with the other anonymous night workers that keep the world ticking over – street sweepers, factory workers, nurses, night bus drivers, office cleaners, bakers, fishermen – a spider was hard at it while the rest of us slept last night.

Am always intrigued by spider webs; the regularity is fascinating but so, too, are the anomalies, which you can see here and there in this one. Makes you feel like saying, ‘Oops, dropped a stitch’.
