Image Details:

When I took a photo of these red hot Firecracker Plant (Russelia equisetiformis), I happened to find a spider in its web.

In Indonesia this plant also called "Bunga Air Mancur" (Fountain or Coral Plant), because the flowers grow pointing upwards and then hanging down like a fountain.

The spider's web was only partially visible, but it's quite clear and sharp under the morning sun. In some parts of the web, I can see some tiny liquid drops, which could be the spider's silk that the spiders use to build its web.🕷️🕸️💗
