It was actually drizzle/mist/rain, and it was just like that outside  
my window.  I don't like manipulating things to help a photo.  Adding  
mist would be cheating!

That spot is about 8-10 feet off of the ground and I had to shoot  
through two layers of glass from inside my house (internal window and  
storm window) to get it.  I should have gotten the tripod but instead  
stood there wobbling and shaking like a drunk (without my glasses on,  
even!) shooting over and over trying to get the exposure and focus  
right while at a full zoom and a middling aperture.

About two hours later the wind picked up and shredded the web all to  
heck.  :-(  ..and then the rebuilding started.
