Spider Web

I was roaming around my yard this afternoon looking for a photo oppurtunity.  The original plan was to head down the little path at the back of our yard which leads to a small stream at the edge of our property.  I didn't make it that far as a Spider Web blocked the path.  I liked the way the sunlight was reflecting on the web, so I took a few shots.

That's pretty cool for the afternoon.

I've seen some spectacular web/light combinations in my day, but never had the right equipment with which to capture the images. What macro lens did you end up buying? (I've forgotten.)

Bob,
I bought the Sigma 50mm F2.8 Macro. I Bought it from Amazon for just under $300 including shipping.

Thanks Kim, I would estimate the web to be about 2-feet wide.
