This really does convey the coolness associated with a dewy morning . . love how natural the colors remain.

Great fresh colors. Wonderful green, warm wood beneath.

@Pied Crow: Thanks! I thought about cropping the wood out actually but then I would have lost that dewdrop dangling right on the edge.

@Betty: Thank you Betty

There are so nice droplets on the low-left leaves. May be coming closer if your camera allows it?

@akarui: This was as close as I could get and still focus properly. I thought about cropping the bottom a bit but decided not too in the end. Thanks for the suggestion though - maybe when I get a proper macro lens!
Kelela from Upland, United States
The drops remind me of sugar crystals; great macro shot! : )

@Kelela: Ah now there's a thought. I liked the plump lusciousness of them so maybe I was thinking subliminally of sugar.
