dandelions in dandelions

This was one of the smaller waterdrops on the dandelion seeds, but it had by far the most vivid refraction. In the background bokeh you can see dozens of other waterdrops refracting live dandelions. Also visible in the bokeh is the live dandelion being refracted, the yard and the stem of the dandelion gone to seed.
