The Divine Artistry of Leaf Dewdrops

Dawn is often the coolest time of the day, and if we are fortunate enough to be in a forest or garden, a lovely miracle happens on the leaves and this miracle is known as dewdrops on leaves.

Needless to say, the dewdrops are a visual extravaganza in themselves. Through the leaves, looking at the sun, the dew drops sparkle and shine like rainbows, and relishing the green shades of the leaves more, the droplets melt the colours of the Tibetian people. It is as though each drop of dew magnifies a very small part of the leaf’s surface and it presents multiple details that lie on the leaf. Light and water combined together create such illusions of nature’s creativity – it is such an amazing sight.

Dewdrops are not just beautiful; they have an understated yet important function in various ecological interactions. These small drops of water can be critical for small creatures such as insects and microorganisms, which rely on these drops for the needed moisture. Further, Dew Remix can be beneficial in t
