Sometimes you can ask them to "show me your world", and if the conditions are right they will. Many wonderful moments can be found within their world with a little planning and patience!
Image
I had about 15 minutes to shoot before the sun went down behind the tree line.
This is "almost" as is straight out of the camera.
Only slight adjustments made.
There is mist/moisture between the tree line and where I was shooting from with the sprinklers going out in the fields. This caused, I think, some wonderful looking patterns or bleeds from the sun in the final image.
A crop of about 10% from the left.
A hint of red added in color adjustment in PS to bring back what I originally had seen.
Slight levels adjustment.

Canon Rebel 300D
Canon IS 75-300mm lens with extension tube
One white reflector
Tripod and wimberly plamp
1/640 sec. @ f4
ISO 400

Thanks for looking gang, and everyone take care!

Hey, you posted a spide shot. :D Very cool technique. This is a sheetweb spider Family Linyphiinae. Some might say a Bowl and Doily spider.

Wonderful monochromatic feel to this, and the crop really brings the viewer in. Truly excellent work, Michael!
