"Our horticulturalists?" For whom do you work or who works for you? The myth of water droplets acting as a lens has long legs, but never-the-less it is a myth. The focal length would be inside the water drop for most droplets, and even if it were exactly on the leaf itself, it would be a tiny pinpoint instead of the round marks often attributed to that myth. |
