But the narrow depth of field, throwing the lower left side of the photo out of focus, kind of messes up the illusion. Solution: for a closeup like this, be sure to use a tripod and do a longer exposure. That should allow you to shoot with a very small aperture, like f16 or f22 -- which will give you much greater depth of field in your photo. That's not always possible in an extreme close-up, but it's worth experimenting with. Very cool idea, especially the top right hand part of the lichen mountain.

That didn't even occur to me. I see a redux on this one in my future. I'm not sure if tea can grow where rime occurs. I attempted some research into the question but found nothing definitive...

It has a familiar and comfortable look/feel about it that you would expect with a tea brand and takes the definition into consideration. But having read the definition it seems that the image should almost be reversed in context, but then it would make more sense if the teas were iced-teas. Does this effect occur in areas where the tea is grown? I like it.
