Contribution for the Macro Dreams challenge: drop Learning something new every day. I've been wondering why the water drops seem to form round pearls especially on the oak leaves. I first thought it is because of lotus effect , but then realized it is actually an epicuticular wax as a plant cuticle that really does the job. So, the wax on leaves makes them water repellant.

Contribution for the Macro Dreams challenge: drop I used my Canon G5, and cropped a lot. Original was 4864x3648 pixels. And from that I cropped this down to 1597 x 2000 pixels. Manual focus first, and then continuous shoot mode to take a number of shots while trying to get the "coffee" into the cup.
