Was roaming around Porterdale, GA, which is an old mill town right outside Covington, GA and there was this pair of garden lopping shears that had gotten rusty and had a spider web on it from an industrious arachnid. I wanted a shallow DOF picture and spent some time crafting the right background for the subject. I didn’t have anything longer than 40mm (80mm FF equivalent) at f/2.8, so this is what I used.
