Thank you for your observations and comments. The contest caption did show a spider web and I had just taken this one. The spider is very small and its web is attached to the small rose. I did not want to destroy the rose nor the web as I walked thru the garden in the early morning light. I thought the lines looked enough like stripes at the time but should you have thought otherwise I would have enjoyed the image regardless. Thanks again.

Thank you for your observation photogirl723. I did try to alter it some to make it less blue. Always appreciate your comments.

You're welcome. That helps.

Thank you kyricom

Thank you Greatpapa

Yes. It can be but the individuals who use the ether normally know how much to use or not use. Too much applied can cause a big fire and unwanted problems.

friiskiwi- Thank you for your comment and question

Ether is widely used around the world with a variety of common uses. China is the biggest user. Ether has several forms and the most common is Dimethyl ether DME. It is an additive to race car fuel, refrigerants, treating warts, and freezer spray among other things. It can be aerosolized as in this case. Many farm workers and other outside workers always carry a can or two with them for starting cold engines in machines and in this case inflating a flat tire which had been patched. If you have additional interest you can always google for more details.
