Nice images, Mike.

What are the white dots vaporing from the pink Japanese plum blossoms?

Jakov, thanks, you are right.  I didn't see the image in the originally posted size which reveals the cobweb.

Spider web with raindrops in #1 is wonderful!

Thanks you all for your comments. Yes, they are raindrops on a spider web from an early morning shower.

I did not realise they were there until I processed the image......

Jakov - spring is a late arrival here. The cherry blossoms are just starting to emerge.
