Lace



Talking about spiders - this picture of frost-covered webs was part of today's Photo Highlights on Yahoo!

It made me think of the Brazilian rendeiras - the women who make lace. If you watch them work it's impossible not to be in awe of their dexterity and of the beautiful intricate lace that results from their art.
