That's really cool. Is my perspective off or is that a huge drop of water?

Also, I'm a sucker for a ground coated in pine needles.

It's a big drop of water. I too love pine needle carpets. It's all pine forest around here and it's gorgeous.

That's awesome. Good for the feet and the eyes. I mostly hike in pitch pine forest, and I love it, sand, ticks, and all.

The shape of the leaf with the water is very cute.

I mean this in the best way possible, this looks like it could be a stock photo for a tea company.

You thought right.

It is muggy as hell in my house right now and there is nothing more I would rather do than shrink down to ant size and swim around in that water droplet! Refreshing
