A lupin is a member of the pea family. When it emerges in the spring, its leaves can form a cup that can hold rain water. The collected rain can form a lens to reveal, or obscure, the intricacies of the leaves.
Lupins have collected rainwater on their leaves; some water has rolled to the centre and formed lenses.
A water lens magnifies details of the structure of the lupin’s leaves,
and reveals the intricacies of hidden patterns.
Wow, those formed lenses make for a stunning photograph.
