Nice image! As another lurker/beginner I haven't posted anything, nor taken anything this good.

one of the plants (looked like a weed) in the garden had a very small flower that wasn't open when i looked at it using the scope i saw the little drops (i think its water).

” I suppose you are an entomologist ? “
” Not quite so ambitious as that, sir. I should like to put my eyes on the individual entitled to that name.
No man can be truly called an entomologist,
sir; the subject is too vast for any single human intelligence to grasp.”
