stone spiderwebs

Photographer: me

did prehistoric spiders scuttle through the sand, cast webs dried to stone?


Southern Utah has some of the most beautiful sandstone formations anywhere. I’m sure a geologist could give a better explanation of the seams and cracks in this rock — perhaps mud dried, compressed, cracked, and then had seepage with different minerals — but spiders grabbed my imagination first. :-)
