This spider web looks unfinished to me.  I don't know if the spider came back to finish it or not.  I do know or have been told that creating a web takes many body nutrients from the spider.  Spiders will eat their webs to recover those nutrients.  I would guess that the spider did not abandon such a good beginning spinning a web.

I used a Sigma 105 mm macro lens for this shot.  The longer lens gives the blurred background.   I like the variegated pastels.   I used a tripod to hold the camera absolutely still.  I literally held my breath during the shot because any air movement will create blur.
